  • You might want to try starting slightly lower for a few weeks and work up to 3000, that way if you do start to gain more fat than you like you can ease off. Having said that at 19 this probably won't be an issue and you'll probably find 3100 or even 3200 is fine. The final figure will probably depend on the program you are…

  • Not used any other apps but I have also been considering switching - too many issues at the moment with MFP. I have just (today) started to look at Lose it, You Food, and LifeSum but so far not decided on anything.
