Hi all, I got the app about a year ago an never really used it, but tomorrow I start my 30 day detox, diet an exercise bootcamp, so have decided to use the app to record my food intake, I tried it out today an I've only used a third of my daily calorie allowance (1000 daily) so I don't think it's going to be as hard as I thought, I have 3 45min bootcamps a week, 1 personal training session an a strict diet with no alcohol for 30 days!! All to lose a stone 2 dress sizes and tone, wish me luck I'm gonna need it;-)

No it can work for you, it will make you aware of calories in everything you eat! As long as you log every morsel that passes your lips.
You can set your calorie intake daily it's up to you - you can do it from computer also..
Try it

I really can't quite believe how many calories are in a bowl of cheerios!!!
Thought I was having a relatively healthy breakfast???!!! Maybe not!! 350 in an average bowl with semi skimmed milk :-/
I'm stuck for breakfast ideas, what do you all eat for breakfast? I need quick & easy options!!

Switch to special k instead! X
I usually have 30g of cornflakes with semi skim milk, think its 178 calories, or I'll have a kit kat for 107 calories with a coffee, or 2 pieces toast with light butter or jam or nutella (love nutella lol)
or other options are
Belvita biscuits
Alpen bars
Activia yoghurts
Tracker bars
fruit
Porridge etc..
I'm allowed 1250 per day so I try split it up something like
Breakfast - 200
Dinner - 300
Tea - 600
Snacks - 150
I earn extra calories every day for excercise (gym & work) & use some usually when watching soaps as I am a big tv snacker lol
It's worked for me so far, good luck x

I had the asda own version of special K yesterday & it was just as much!! Dread to think what's in kids cereal x

Kids cereals is usually sugar. 200-250 average for a bowl of cereal with semi skimmed milk is normal. If it isn't full of marshmallows and chocolate, it's fine, honestly.
If you still think that's too high you can opt for other things outside the carb category like egg white scramble, yogurt, fruits, but you really don't wanna go too low in calories for breakfast or lunch because that's when your body is active. In the evening is when you wanna keep it light because that's when you're winding down and getting ready for sleep.

I'm six foot three and fifteen stone and I'm on there too- it works for all shapes and sizes
I did spend one night out pathetically putting pints of Guinness into the app via my phone, and then running it off with a 10k the next day.
