I use it often when I do home cooked meals..Anyways, my question is, whilst it allows us to input all the ingredients, what do we do in case an item is pan fried or deep fried? How do you add calories that come from frying? Listing ingredients is…

Sporadic cycling..
So my friend has this stationary bike at her home and she works out on it a lot but very differently to me. Whilst, I like to bike for a set period, say 30- 60 minutes a day, she works out every now and then. If she has a cup of cappuccino, she wait a while and then promptly gets on the bike and works out enough to burn…

Unfortunately, I have a very week shoulder as a result of which I cannot do the planks and push ups and other similar exercise that involves supporting the body on yours hand/shoulders.

Why do I have to eat a minimum of 1200 calories?
Ok, so I dont get this..Why is it essential for me to eat 1200 calories and up my intake? Not that it is a problem but why? I am a crazy overeater but since I started logging in foods to my food diary, I have become conscious of what I eat and that has kinda tackled the over eating part. So now, I eat what I feel right…
