Hi
Went 4 weeks ago to the diabetic dietitian who said that I needed to loose weight although my calorie count on a food log averaged around 1300 a day, but we all cheat (try not too but) anyway, she suggested an app called Myfitnesspro which again is a food log but accesses internet for food details either by name or scan the bar code.
Started as I said 4 weeks ago, being it's so easy to use you do the log when you eat or drink, my calorie count now averages 1100 - 1150 a day and so far I've lost 3 Kilo's down to 116 from 119 my optimum weight is 89 Kilos, don't think I was ever that thin, it also let's you see carbs, sugar, salt etc
It's a really helpful app and it's free, you do have to set an account up so it stores your logs but you can use a dummy email address or Facebook, it doesn't post to Facebook or anywhere if you don't want it to.
As long as you've got a computer, smart phone or tablet you can access your details, add food, drinks as you go, it also links to mywalkpro app (also free) that logs you walking / running and those calories you burn off are deducted automatically from your intake calories.
It helps me, hopefully if you download it, it will help you.
