Just discovered this app and decided to join as I've been threatening to lose a stone for over a year. Hope you are all well and any tips or advice on food choices would be appreciated.

    Hi, I have a stone to lose too. Have been trying to run, bike a swim in training for a sprint distance triathlon, see post titled 'new runners and 'tri'ers'. I think I must be the only over weight person not to lose weight whilst training for a tri!

    As far as food choices go, I'm trying to reduce non-wholegrain carbs and not eat after 7pm. After 7 pm is the danger time for me....good all day and then 'snack attack' in the eve.

    Good luck!
