Tracking your calories is an essential first step to managing weight. Calorie counting makes us mindful of what we eat. This plan is ideal for this. Food and activity charts will help you to record your daily activity and calorie consumption.

DOWNLOAD THE PLAN

There are many calorie counting apps including MyFitnesPal. Easy Meals is a neat app to discover new recipes. The Change4Life Food Scanner is a handy guide for your weekly shop: uncover foods high in sugar, bad fats and salt.

How does this work?

The tailored approach LiveWell Dorset uses to come up with solutions to the things that are stopping us achieving our goals, is based upon work done by University College London developing the COM-B model of behaviour change. In this model, all behaviour is influenced by understanding a person’s capability to change, their opportunity to change and their motivation to change. By understanding which of these is the biggest barrier to change, we can tailor support accordingly. This model of behaviour change is at the centre of the support we offer, online and in person.

When you register with LiveWell Dorset, we ask you some questions about you and your health (how much you smoke, how active you are, how much you drink and how much you weigh). We store that information and use it to shape our service offer to you – such as the advice we give or the extra services we connect you to. The only people who will see this information will be those involved in the delivery of the service and management of the data. If you would like to use extra services (such as slimming clubs and pharmacies) we have to share this information with them. For us to be able to put you in touch with these services, we must have your consent to share that information with the service (we’ll ask for that later, when if you sign up for extra services).

You acknowledge that you can withdraw your consent at any time by informing LiveWell Dorset.
