But also, I'm not sure I'd have 1.75 slices of something if it weighed the wrong weight. That doesn't seem too practical.

For those who say the package never weighs the same as the scale, are you in the UK?
-
Hmm, I'm not sure I can commit to weighing everything when I'm out of the house from 7am until 9pm most days. Nor am I sure I want to eat less food, I'm already hungry!

The balls are manufactured. There are three in a packet of which the weight is given. The same with slices of bread.

The exercise is synced automatically and I only log the strength exercises manually (but they don't come up as burning calories). I'll give using the Garmin stats a go. I think they will result in me eating fewer calories if I take off 250 calories, at least on days where I do little exercise.

I use a Garmin to track activity by the way.

I'm 37, weigh (today) 135lb (start weight 136lb), height 5ft4. I work in a sedentary job but walk about 5 miles a day and do some other exercise (run, swim, cycle) about four times a week. My calories are set at 1200. I feel constantly hungry though so I have been eating some of my calories back.

It's been about a month. I eat about half of my exercise calories back. Maybe I could reduce this amount,

Yes, I weigh my food if at home. I selected to lose 2 pounds per week but anything per week would do me!

I thought I'd made some improvements but I'm still wavering between 134 and 137 pounds, with no real weight loss. This is very frustrating!

Alcohol isn't the issue. I gave up for a few months and it had zero impact on my weight. It's definitely the snacking that is problematic. And, as I say, this week is not representative of my drinking habits,

I like two chick egg whites with mushrooms omelette but tend only to have at weekends. Thanks for the new idea using that. The Pret thing is convenient. I thought it was filling me up but maybe it isn't. I used to have salads with ready meals but no so convenient to eat on the train! Maybe the answer is more snacks like…

I know alcohol is bad for weight loss. I'm not constantly going out though, this week was honestly just a bad one and Beck's blue isn't always available! I don't have any social occasions for the next month and would like to knock the other bad snacking habits on the head too.

Yes, alcohol was bad this week, a lot of socialising and not usual! I usually have snacks late afternoon or early evening (at desk or on train home). I rarely get home before 8.30. The diary layout was already present in the app. I find it pretty useful and it has made me realise the problem is snacking!
