Its not a ball ache at all, I enjoy using it. Haven’t made any major changes to the type of food I eat but I’ll avoid eating some foods now.
The app asks you to enter your target weight and how many weeks you want to take to achieve that weight loss in. It then gives you a daily calorie goal, I felt mine was too low so upped it to 1800 calories a day. You then track any food you eat or excercise you do.
Haven’t reached my target weight yet, got another 2 kg to lose, but you would then revert back to a ‘normal’ calorie intake to maintain that weight.
Also – how do you work out how many calories are in the home cooked food you’ve just eaten?
You can easily create ‘recipes’ based on the ingredients in the home cooked meal.
The ‘calorie metrics’ may be misleading but it’s worked well for me. I’m not bothered if the figures are not 100% accurate, as long as the weight is coming off then its close enough for me. It also helps add discipline to your eating.
I don’t have to completely avoid any food type and I feel fantastic.
