  • I have a HTC Wildfire - use the MFP app daily to record foods, also the scanner option is great if you have a barcode you can scan. In the month or so i've been using it, have not experienced any problems xxx
  • hi, I'm not long started either - you will get some great support, advice and friendship from here/ oh & btw i'm 42 xxx
  • I did the same - hubby came in with a bag of chippy chips for me and I ended up eating the lot (after i'd already had lunch). Was shocked when I saw that a portion of chips came up at almost 1000 calories alone !!! I had some gluten free pasta with vegan pesto. I did some gardening tonight, which gave me some extra…
  • good luck - you have come to the right place for support ... i've only been using MFP for a few weeks, and everyone has been briliant xxx
  • its amazing how much on an eye opener portion control becomes when you actually start measuring things out !!! i'm another one who's thinking about an HRM but not sure whether I can afford to spend the money on a decent one which tells you how many calories you have burned.

  • congratulations ... little victories are just as important as the big ones ... sometimes more important, as its the little victories that keep us going while we try to achieve the main ones xxx

  • i'm experimenting with some baking at moment, and trying to keep them as low-carb as possible (not just for myself, but my 10 year old niece has been put on a low-carb diet, as she cannot metabolise carbs). so i'm another one looking for low-carb snacks xxx
