Trochanteric tendinitis
Hi folks, I'd managed to lose over 30 pounds between 2011 and 2012 and had got myself into the habit of getting to the gym five mornings per week (first thing before I went to work) - working up from zero exercise at the beginning.

I didn't think too much about it, just manually put in what the reading…

Hi from Middlesex
Hi, I found the site a week ago and am finding it very useful, primarily for the food diary function. I've already had help from some kind people on the message boards and feel this will be a positive environment to help me change bad habits and keep me focused on my goal, which is to lose (eventually) around fifty pounds…

Recipe Calculator Query
Hi there- I'd really appreciate some advice on this.... I would like to cook the following recipe from the BBC website; http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/blueberry_and_chilli_11759 It does stipulate a fairly fatty cut of meat, which isn't ideal for a healthy eating regime, however after the initial cooking time you discard…
