Curious, how is the website targeted at females? I thought it was fairly gender neutral other than the calories required, maybe i wasn’t so neutral as i thought. Yeah Its always a battle, i know the theory behind it, i even did a personal training course, but i still struggle with motivation and weight. I’m by no means perfect, just another struggling person.

I’ve lost count how many times I’ve oscillated between 105 and 115kg. The last rise from 102 to 118 since Xmas has been the last straw. Thks for the upfront and simple talking to. It’s up to me! The stomach ulcer has been motivational too… Your website is targeted at females, but we men get fat too. Will let u know how things go. Stopped smoking 2 weekgs ago, and today was the first without a drink for a long time. Why do we do this to ourselves??

Wow, fitday.com is amazing. Thanks for the recommendation. The information it gives is unbelievably helpful. I added my food intake for today, for example, and was instantly able to see where my nutrient deficiencies were (vitamins) and where the dangerous foods are increasing my salt and fat intake. I can definitely see myself using this site. I like many of the other functions, too, such as a chart that allows you to track your mood and another which can show you how much weight you’re losing compared to your weight loss goals. I used to subscribe to a popular weight-loss company who charged way too much money and gave me so much less information! I also like your no-nonsense tone – less in, more out, no need to feel guilty about having one chocolate biscuit and no need to panic when you do! I have a big journey ahead of me (excuse the pun) but thanks!

NZ foods are the same as everyone elses. But to me honest all applications use the same database of foods which was released by the American Foods place. NZ has no such thing so i doubt you will find one. There is a book at the warehouse with a kiwifruit on the top i saw with a decent NZ selection in it and was very sane.
I would suggest for computer usage to get the fitday.com application . Otherwise get an app for your phone or similar.

Yeah, you will find as you loose weight and be healthier the lactose intolerance is much better. I can now have coffee and tea and even some cheese stuff!
