Starting up on FatSecret again Mon 11 Jan 2021. Have put on weight due to various lockdowns, Christmas and New Year. Previously approaches which have helped to lose me weight have been a Healthy Eating portion plate, FatSecret, Slimming World and keeping a Food Diary. FatSecret UK was very helpful, so I am trying again.

My meals are reasonably healthy, but I don't do well with snacks as I tend to get hooked on chocolate and crisps. I have problems with food intolerances and the only grains I can include at the moment are oats, rice and wild rice. Also have problems with lactose and soy. I'll use or adapt any healthy recipes. I tend to orient to the Mediterranean Diet, but due to my food intolerances will also look at Paleo recipes, and I tend to pick up Slimming World magazines whenever they come out.

I'm not too good on will-power, but am OK with having some treats and aiming for a bit of weight loss each week. Hopefully will be able to get some walking and other exercise going too. Anyway, see how it goes.
