Let us know how it is going! Be well! Brenda (MyNetDIary Dietitian)


I’m on day 2 and afraid I will fail AGAIN!! So far I really like the app and all the features.


Hi JesusGirl13,

I am so glad you started tracking! So many others who have tried other plan in past find themselves successful from tracking. You can use foods familiar to you and adjust portions or tweak the combinations in order to get the calories down where they need to be while getting more activity to burn more calories. It makes you more aware of your daily habits and can be a learning journey for long term wellness. Let us know how you are doing and reach out in forum to others who are right there with you!

Make it a healthy and happy day! Brenda (MyNetDIary Dietitian)


I like to track progress else how do you hold yourself to account?


Hello SofaJockey- I think you are asking what are other ways to provide accountability when it comes to weight loss?
Research has shown that finding support like an exercise buddy or someone to connect with in regards to your progress can be beneficial. This article may provide you with some other tips. https://www.mynetdiary.com/the-power-of-support-for-weight-loss.html
If other questions come up let us know. Best, Joanna (MyNetDiary Dietitian)


Interesting, thanks. I’ve certainly found discussions online with others to be helpful. My circumstances mean that I don’t really have a local buddy, family excepted. .


Hello SofaJockey- Thanks for emailing back. Yes, online support can be powerful! Are you aware that MyNetDiary is on Instagram and Facebook as well as twitter. Other options to consider for connecting with others who "get it." Best, Joanna


I’ll take a look on Twitter, thanks. I’m no fan of Facebook.


Hope you manage to keep on at things, Like you I often fear I'll fall by the wayside.
