I beleive other diet apps do the same.  I am losing weight, not steadily, in jumps and stops which is odd as i am seeing visible waistline changes. I'm waiting till my next blood test at GP before I put my results on here, as i am not monitoring it and i keep forgetting to take my metformin. While I am losing weight I'm not too concerned.</blockquote>
