Have you tried nutracheck? Maybe you need to eat more, especially doing all that exercise. I wonder if you total up all your food and see how many calories you are eating with ww? I’ve done WW and SW and found them too strict, worth a goYeah i don't know if you do on blue.

I haven't, I'll take a little lookHave you tried nutracheck? Maybe you need to eat more, especially doing all that exercise. I wonder if you total up all your food and see how many calories you are eating with ww? I’ve done WW and SW and found them too strict, worth a go
Would you mind explaining what nutra check is? Like a calorie counting app you do alone from home?I know it’s awesome, I love that you get the pic of items too, makes it so much easier, and that you can set your own goals or follow a certain plan. I’m so glad I sacked off SW and WW, never again!!!!!
It's like My Fitness Pal. I've just started using it and you get a free 7 day trial. I'm finding it much better and easier to use than MFPWould you mind explaining what nutra check is? Like a calorie counting app you do alone from home?
I personally think you should be eating your fit points or at least eat in to them a bit as you must be starving!Just joined - doing Green but finding it hard because yoy have to counts eggs and everything previously lost 3 stone on SW, have put 1 stone back on in lockdown that i want to lose.
Do you guys eat back your fitpoints? I run about 4-5 hours a week and average about 40k so not sure if I should eat the fit points back as I'd get about 90 extra points haven't been so far but am super hungry all the time.
I think if I am really hungry I will eat few back some days, as yeah I'm so hungry at the min! I have had a look at purple and it looks the most similar to SW which I spose is what I know so felt like I wanted something different with trying green.I personally think you should be eating your fit points or at least eat in to them a bit as you must be starving!
What I will say ref the plans is it’s just mindset. I’m on purple and find it works for me because on green having 30 points a day I would use all 30 trying to squeeze in crap foods whereas on purple I don’t eat much of the free food so I find it better as I have to really make smart choices when it comes to grabbing a shop sandwhich for lunch/eating out in the evenings (we can all dream this will be happening again soon lol!!) Hope this makes sense and here if you need any advice I am 2 stone down in 20 weeks. Stick with it xx
The only thing that is different to SW is it's only brown rice and wholegrain pasta you can have so in a way it is slightly better for you. I don't have any potatoes or pasta in mine just small portion of brown rice or quinoaI have had a look at purple and it looks the most similar to SW which I spose is what I know so felt like I wanted something different with trying green.
So I loved SW for when i was losing weight but the problem came with when I wanted to maintain... you basically can never have a takeaway etc without being 'off plan'. With ww i feel like I can use weeklies for this type of thing and still live a normal life? I dunno, I need something sustainable so I don't yo yo this 1st for the next few years (if only because owning jeans in 2 sizes is not practical ). So I'm kind of willing to swap big losses of I can make something work long term but I guess we shall see!I've been on ww blue for 8 weeks and only lost 10lb so I'm thinking of giving purple a go.
I previously lost 3 stone with sw but gained a lot back. Thought I'd try something different.
I'm struggling with how slow the losses are and how minimal
Yeah it’s a calorie counting app. You can try it for free and then it’s £4 a month. You can set different goals for yourself, you can follow the 5:2 plan, lower sugar, lower carb, higher protein etc. It’s great because it has pictures of food too. I’ve attached a screen shot so you can see what I mean.Would you mind explaining what nutra check is? Like a calorie counting app you do alone from home?
I found Nutracheck from this forum and I love it! So much better than MFP but what I love most is it’s UK-based - I always struggled with all the random American food on MFP!Yeah it’s a calorie counting app. You can try it for free and then it’s £4 a month.

Totally agree with you, so much easier for me too, and it’s a bargain for only £1 a week!I found Nutracheck from this forum and I love it! So much better than MFP but what I love most is it’s UK-based - I always struggled with all the random American food on MFP!
