To weigh or not?
Hiii, I'm back here (again) after a long and very enjoyable break... I got rather obsessed with this app a few years back when I was going through some stuff and it kind of took over my life.

Thoughts on a Detox please...
Hello everyone, Hope you all had a lovely xmas and are suitably prepared to end this year in style tonight.

Yoghurt Dipped Fruit?
Hello, I love yoghurt covered dried fruit (the sort that you can buy in Holland & Barrett and places like that) - but it is usually pretty high in callories and sugar etc. Just wondered if anyone had ever tried to recreate it at home?
