Lost 22.2lbs. So Far (Bowflex 6wk Diet Plan) Topic

This is my first post in this community...
So far I've lost 22.2lbs. on the Bowflex diet & exercise plan. It's basically a 60/20/20 diet (carbs/fat/protein) and you start off with 1500cal/day and reduce them by 100 every 2 weeks. You workout using the Bowflex 3 times/week, doing only about 20 minutes of exercises. So yeah...even I can do that! I feel it's the best one for me to lose weight fast and get into shape.
I have the old Bowflex Power Pro which included a 6 week diet plan that I've done in the past. In fact, I bought it over 20 years ago and the most weight I lost in 6 weeks was 26lbs. back then but that was when I was 20 years younger - lol! I've done this diet a few times since then but this last 6 weeks is my 2nd best when I lost 19.2lbs. in 6 weeks. I definitely would have lost more but I cheated several times, more than I'd like to admit (i.e., pizza, burgers, fries, etc.) but not consistently.
I feel that logging all my food using the MyNetDiary app is why I had more success for these last 6 weeks verses 5 years ago when I did this diet but didn't have the app. I REALLY LOVE THIS APP...it seems they've thought of everything and it's VERY intuitive! One thing I need to do is post a question in another forum about how to deal with a wrong label using the barcode...

Hi Nickerz2021- Congrats on your weight loss! It sounds like you have some great momentum and have found a plan that works for you. We are thrilled to hear the app is adding to your success!
When it comes to the barcode scanner simply use the "photo food service (send a picture of the barcode and nutrition facts to MyNetDiary and we enter it into the database)" feature to report an incorrect barcode to the MyNetDiary support team. Here's some more info:https://www.mynetdiary.com/iphelp_meal.html

Here I go again! When I don’t log every bite, I eat too often, put butter on everything and keep premium ice cream in the freezer. I like this app. So easy!
