I’ve lost 45lbs in the past 18 months, initially by eating more healthily and latterly by increased exercise. I’m a big user of MyFitnessPal app to record my daily calorie intake, scanning a barcode to record calories is brilliant and just recording what I eat/do each day makes a big difference. What really works for me though is going to weekly slimming meeting to be weighed - which I have to pay for. I hate feeling like I’ve wasted my weekly fee, and I have to pay to stay on the program if I go or not. Just having information these app’s provide isn’t enough in my opinion, you also need self motivation, peer pressure, financial incentive, rewards all in varying amounts for different people.
