I’ve resisted using this platform for so long but it makes the weight loss journey a lot easier and for the first time in a long while I’m actually seeing movement on the scale

Hi Elizabeth, thanks for your comment - and for giving wlr a go. Really happy to see it's helping - well done on your weight loss 👏 Best wishes, Tracey - Helpteam

I really only use the data recording and analysis facilities but I recognise the value of the recipes, the encouragement stories and the experience articles for those for whom these are important. I find the data recording very easy to keep up, easy to update (needs rectifying) or upload (doesn't yet exist in you database) and I find the analysis statistics and presentation perfect for my needs. I have developed my own processing system (spreadsheets, graphs, averages) to suit my own motivational characteristics and these are readily created with your output data.

Thank you very much for your informative review John. I'm intrigued by the spreadsheet system you have set up - it would be really interesting to see the what kinds of data you are surfacing if you don't mind sharing. There may be ways of making this more accessible for you and I'm pretty sure there would be other members who like to get deeper into their data 🤔 Anyway, thanks again - all the best for reaching your goals. Best wishes, Tracey - Helpteam

The site is a great weight loss tool and allows you to be in control and supported on your own terms. You can engage as much or as little as you like so long as you do the food diary! The plans can make logging a lot quicker and the mobile 'cockpit' is very motivating! I have lost over 4 stone so far and genuinely don't believe that I could have achieved it without WLR!

Hi Susan, thank you very much for your lovely review - and tips for other members! You're right - food diary is key to all. Glad to hear that it's going well for you, and well done on your impressive weight loss👏😁 Best wishes, Tracey - Helpteam PS Apologies for the tardiness of my reply - bit of a mix-up over who's checking in here during holiday period!

Have tried other weight loss companies and diets, but for me, this is the only one that works. Calorie counting, many many foods listed, exercise calories used based on current weight, great discussion threads, support and a graph to show you how well you are progressing. Easy to use, great value for money and would recommend giving it a go.

Weight Loss Resources is helping me to lose weight, but I am still finding my way around the website and trying to remember to log everything! It takes a bit of getting used to.

Thank you for your comments Angela, glad to hear we're helping you to lose weight but it sounds like we could help a little more with using the tools to full potential - there's a lot there, and you're right, a lot to remember! Helpteam are pretty good at offering navigation tips and shortcuts, they quite often give tours and pointers, please send a message and one of us will give you a call if you feel that might be useful - we're here to help. Thanks once again for sharing your experience, Tracey - Helpteam

WLR is great, I've learned how to eat normal food again and still lose weight

Thanks for your insight Pauline, nice to hear you're losing weight without having a long list of 'do not eats' - normal food is best for long term success 😊 Best wishes, Tracey - Helpteam

I’d be lost without this tool! It keeps me focused and has helped me each time if needed to lose a few lbs

This is a well thought out and excellent aid to dieting. It makes one well aware of the calorie values of whatever you choose to eat. There is only one area which I query and that is the one of age and the calories needed per day to 'survive' and/or to lose weight. I am nearly 80 and one's metabolic rate is totally different to that of younger people. I am only losing weight if I cut the daily calories substantially below your recommendation. None of my friends over 75 are able to lose weight on average calorie intake. Comments on this aspect of dieting as related to 'seniors' please.

Thanks for your positive comments Anon. (I don't want to use your name in case you prefer not to in a public place.) It's interesting that you're finding the your daily calorie allowance to be higher than you think it should be. This is because your calorie allowance is calculated according your personal needs - your age, for example is taken into account when we make the calculation. It may be that there are some other factors/settings need tweaking in order to make sure your allowance is being worked out correctly. Having said that, it's important to say that your weight loss should not be too fast. It's likely that it's not advisable for you to try to lose weight at 2lbs a week for example. I'm going to ask Rory from the Helpteam to get in touch with you. He'll be able to make sure that everything is set up correctly and give you some more specific advice. Best wishes, Tracey - Helpteam

I haven't in any way maximized the website, but I had been recording my food and weighing in. Personally for myself I joined Tesco Diets about 7 years ago which the site is no longer. My favorite parts were that I could create a menu each week from a drop down list and also print a shopping list from this. I had a weekly email reminder to add my weight with a comment and I received back a comment from one of the team - usually words of encouragement. I small thing but it really helped me stay on track. I could say when I had been on holiday and they encouraged me to get back on it.

I feel there should be a board for people with over four stone to lose as I find it provides more for people already at target or who have very little to lose. I often find it quite intimidating to post on the boards as many of the old regulars seem to know it all and give their advice in a very holier than thou way. I refuse to participate on the boards because of this .

Thank you for the feedback Jennifer, it's really good to have insights like yours as to how people may feel about advice given on the boards from 'those who have done it'. I think it's a great idea to have a board for people who are in the earlier stages of their weight loss and/or want to lose a lot of weight. The team here will have a think about what might be a good way to do that, and we'll get something sorted for next week. Thanks again for your insight, Best wishes, Tracey - Helpteam

I have used WLR before and managed to get my weight into the correct range for me. Then I decided to go it alone - big mistake! I started using the WLR system again five weeks ago to capture all of my food and exercise and have lost 10lb. I am a fair way off my target weight yet, but feel that with the assistance of WLR I will get there. Then, I will be staying with the plan to help me maintain for sure.

Thanks for your comments John, I think a lot of people share your experience of needing to continue keeping an eye on calories in calories out after they have reached their goal weight. Especially for the first 12 months or so - even if not on an every single day basis. (As a maintainer of over 15 years, I can tell you that it get's much easier as your body and mind fully adjust, but it does take time.) Best wishes, Tracey - Helpteam

Excellent for information regarding losing weight, getting fit, diets, etc. Also invaluable for advice when you run out of ideas or become demotivated. Regular challenges and a great community. It can be used as much or as little as you like.

WLR works. It has a truly excellent database of foods, the ability to set up plans of regular food and exercise to make logging easy. The community is very supportive and the Help Team are brilliant. I’m here for the long term now.

Easy to use but would be so much better if it was on an app. A bit annoying having to find the plan you're using from the list when you want to add food

Thank you for your feedback Wendy, we do have some work in progress on the 'app' side of things - though we will be sticking to the web app, as things progress wlr will provide a more traditional app-like experience - hopefully to the point where there will be no noticeable difference. I've noted your comment re when you are using a diet plan - hopefully we'll be able to find a way to make this a bit slicker in the not too distant future :) Best wishes, Tracey - Helpteam

I have been a member for most of the past 15 years, only leaving a couple of times when I had so much going on that I wasn't using the site enough. The site is really easy to use and the database is extensive. The information on nutrition is excellent. The forum boards are good to read although Off Topic is not as interesting as it was some 10/12 years ago and I no longer post. All in all very good and I shall continue to use unless anything untoward happens 🙂
