I find it so hard to stay motivated after drinking...
Don't know why my mindset is so wrong but last weekend for the bank holiday I ended up having a few drinks every day, nothing too bad tho no killer hangovers.

How do you log your takeaways ??
We got a M and S pizza for the weekend and the calories on it were crazy high! I'd guess a take away is even worse too... Is there any good estimates of what is in a take away to put down ? Looking at my intake the weekend is definitely where I leg myself down when I'm not eating things I've cooked

ITeknic scales for body fat readings
Do you think these are accurate ? Was really shocked this morning when it said I had put on body fat and lost muscle mass despite going out for 2 runs, a big DDP yoga session and exercise bike. Physically I think I look like I've been putting on muscle so it was a bit disheartening to see the readings today... Should I…

Keeping your carbs down ??
Just started using the tracking and my carbs are way too high for the macro! The first few days I ended up just having a protein shake to balance it all out but I'm not sure if that's a good idea or not? What do you all do to make it balanced? I'm thinking I should have one meal a day that is low carb and that would help ?…
