Fasting apps

[PaulSB]

I don't understand. How does an app make you lose weight? Surely its a matter of eating less of the bad stuff and exercising more? Does it simply shout "Get away from the fridge you fat b*stard" ?

There's certainly truth in this but how do you know what the bad stuff is and how much you're eating of it?

It sounds interesting. But I cannot download the app as I live in Denmark.

Have you tried? If I vpn into Denmark I can still download the app. There doesn't appear to be anything in the app that needs an NHS number or UK address.

The world’s gone mad. I came across an advert for an app that tells you when to go to sleep. What next? An app to tell you when to breathe?

One of the best things you can do to help lose weight is to write down everything you eat.

There's an App for that!

I would like to lose about 10kg in the new year.

I am looking into fasting apps. But there is too much choice and I do not know which to pick.

Is anyone using a fasting app or have a family member who is and can offer some advice?

Just do the 18-6 rule. Eat healthy and weight will fall off once you get past the carbo flu which lasts about 2 weeks

There was a bit on the radio this morning, up to 50% of the weight you lose is muscle, not fat, especially if you try to lose weight too quickly. You can mitigate that with exercise, but if people take weight loss drugs because they don't want to exercise......

Short-term diets tend not to work long-term, as people tend to revert to old eating habits once the diet is finished.

We found the Zoe nutrition app far more effective - it changed our eating patterns without ever feeling restricted. Weight gradually slips off.
