“Over style advise to”
Written on: 11/05/2013
I am lucky enough to work with many of their members to help them look and feel confident and stylish. While they are losing weight and when they have reached their weight goal . Losing weight is only half the picture of reaching your true potential. Having a diet company that helps you look good in your clothes is so important. Alicia kite. (read more)

“Support support support”

Best calorie counter and support with calorie counting. The scanner works amazingly and saved me time as a first time user. Just had a baby so time means everything. Stores most foods and easy to add others into data. (read more)

“Works well”
Written on: 13/03/2013
Has most foods in the database and makes it really easy to track consumption - I would recommend to anyone. Customer Service was excellent. Minor gripes - iphone app slows down with continuing use, sometimes you cannot correct an existing food products weight and have to enter it as a new item. No major problems though. (read more)

“This will really make a difference!”
Written on: 13/03/2013
I've just signed up for the 3 month Nutracheck membership, having completed my 5 day trial and I now know that this time I will actually lose weight. The reason I know it will make a difference is that the few days I have been filling in my food diary online has shown me that all those healthy snacks I graze on throughout the day have been the very reason I am not losing weight. I tend to have healthy meals and then pick at fruit and nuts in between meals, but I probably snacked more... (read more)

“Easy to use”
Written on: 13/03/2013
Very easy to use and understand. Helps to plan meals and keep me focused. The only thing I would like added is a breakdown of proportion of protein, carbohydrates in the food diaries. There is a recommendation for fat allowance, but again that is very general and does not breakdown into saturated and non-saturated fats. But overall very pleased. And very good value for money. I have worked out that if I join for 6 months at the moment will be less that £1.50 per week. (read more)

“So simple it works! ”
Written on: 13/03/2013
Finding Nutracheck was the best thing I have ever done for myself. It is not a diet it is a way of eating that fits in with life. Nothing is banned and there is absolutely no need to cut anything out of the diet. Nutracheck has all the tools at your fingertips to help you stay focused and on track to slow steady weight loss. The forums are very supportive, members put a lot of effort into keeping challenges going and a bit of competition and banter for when the going gets tough. I... (read more)

“It works”
Written on: 13/03/2013
This is a great way to control your food intake, I have been using nutracheck for just under a week and have shed pounds!!! I love the barcode app which allows me to scan foods so easy and simple, the only thing which is a little frustrating is the library of food on the iPhone app is limited certain brands or chains are not there so they have to be manually Inputted in regards of calories and fat contents, but you can get around this and hopefully the food library will be updated as the...

“The only way to lose weight.”
Written on: 05/02/2013 by alanhathaway (1 review written)
I was referred to Nutracheck by a friend after struggling to lose weight and 8 months later after following nutrachecks guidance I lost 5 stone! Nutracheck has really changed my life and improved my confidence 10 fold! I chose Nutracheck because: - Its not a diet, it teaches you again how to eat but it does it without you knowing it. - I'm a young bloke and I didn't want to go to "meetings" and be humiliated. - It has a smartphone app and a bloody brilliant website thats so so easy to...

“This is the way to lose! Easily and happily.”
Written on: 21/01/2013
My best friend bought me a 3 month membership to this website when I was stressed and upset about the fact I felt I would never be able to lose weight, and I will be forever grateful to her for it. It's truly the best thing I've ever done for my health and well being. I've never been a person who could diet. I hate the very idea of it and I've run away from anything that seemed suspiciously diet-like. Nutracheck is a healthy eating practice. You can eat anything you like (today's been a... (read more)

“Excellent - taking my food diary out and about.”
Written on: 21/01/2013
Nutracheck is great because it has an app that I've downloaded to my phone too. Not only can I fill my diary in at home, but on the app wherever I am (as long as I have a phone signal). The food reports are great too, so it works great in terms of filling my diary in on the app and reviewing how it's all going when I log onto my computer in the evening. I'm steadily losing weight, and it's the most successful diet I've been on to date. (read more)

“Easy to use. Increase your knowledge at your own pace”
Written on: 20/01/2013 by Sharon333
I like that I can keep track of my calorie and fat intake. I don't use it to diet, i tend to get a bit obsessional if i do that, but just to keep myself informed. I use it a bit sporadically though. Sometimes I use it for a few days just to shock myself into realising how many calories are in all the little extras I'm in the habit of eating. (read more)

“Look no further!”
Written on: 03/07/2012
So many of these things are a scam but this site is really good. it's brilliantly thought out, easy to use both on the ipone and online. I am loosing 2kg/week easily and enjoying myself. The calorie counter itself is worth the money, it always has the food you search and the search is instant. You can invent/log your own recipes ie food you regularly eat like a home made ham salad sandwich, so you don't have to keep entering the same ingredients over again for these home made meals. it tells...

I found NC with a google search and signed up for the 5 day free trial. Day two I just paid the money and it is the best thing I have ever done for ME! I have lost weight many times over the years with other diets and always put it all back on as they have never fitted in with 'life' NC is not a diet, it is a way of eating that fits in with life. I have lost 4.5 stone with VERY little effort and cutting nothing out of my diet. As far as I am concerned calories are calories no matter if... (read more)

Written on: 19/05/2011
I have been with Nutracheck before and lost a lot of weight with them. Now after stuffing myself with too much food on holiday i'm with them again. It's a great tool and much more advanced in my opinion than the WW online weight checker tool. Plus it's value for money for the same thing. The food index is extensive and if what you're eating is not on there it is very easy to add. Lots of tips and if you like to cook, recipes available as well as an online forum to talk to other people and... (read more)

I absolutely love nutracheck and couldn't recommend it highly enough. I have lost 2 stone in just over 2 months...

It has totally transformed my life, I feel like a new person :) (read more)

Joined www.nutracheck.co.uk at the beginning Jan 2011 wanting to loose 2stone which i thought was a pipe dream as i'd been overweight and unhappy about my weight for years. Just over 2 months on and i'm 1stone 9lb lighter, a dress size less and feel the happiest about my weight in years. The site is so easy to use and it really is simple to follow. I have learnt so much about what's in food and how I need to change to continue the weight loss and keep it off for life. I would never have... (read more)

Written on: 20/01/2011
I lost 17lbs in seven weeks with this site and all for the price of a bottle of wine a week (and without the calories!!). It's like having a personal diet and fitness consultant who encourages you along. It's incredibly easy and I like being able to give my own daily feedback to my progress too. Some people have mentioned in reviews that the exercise calorie-burning totals are a bit inaccurate but does it really matter if you're a few calories out at the end of the day? It's the overall...

Written on: 11/01/2011
I have lost over 2 stone since August by using this web-based diet diary. What it has done for me is give me total control over my calorie intake, which I have never had, and reward me for my calorie expenditure through exercise. It has motivated me to diet effectively where I have never been able to maintain another diet plan. Furthermore: I have not given up alcohol nor has there been any need to do so. (read more)

Amazing site. I found it about 2 and a half years ago and lost 4.5 stone (in fact 5 at my lowest but I've settled at a few pounds above that) and have managed to keep it off ever since. I use the site still to help me manage my weight and get those extra Christmas pounds off from when you don't try too hard to be good. As others have said its a very simple concept, though you do have to be honest. But if you are it is pretty well foolproof. I didn't give anything up just changed the... (read more)

Fantastic concept, it really works. I had no idea how many calories I was getting through every day - I have lost 2.5 stone so far and am nearly at my goal weight now. Diary is really simple to use, the forums are great too, everyone is really supportive when you have a bad day and the staff are very very helpful if you have any problems or need some suggestions to keep going. It's the first 'diet' that I've not given up on and I have really learnt the value of food so I am absolutely sure I... (read more)

Written on: 11/01/2010
There is no magic to the principles behind nutracheck - calorie restriction and exercise. I consider myself reasonably well educated on diet, nutrition and exercise and so previously shunned this sort of site - my thinking was that it couldn't teach me anything I didn't know already. I have to say that nutracheck has made a phenomenal difference to my efforts to lose weight and maintain fitness. I had underestimated the psychological benefits of getting a green tick at the end of the day and... (read more)

This is a fantastic website. It has all the features you need, as well as loads of features you didn't realise you needed! Combining calorie counting with exercise, this website encourages you to eat healthily by telling you how many fruit/vegetable portions you have eaten too. I couldn't recommend it highly enough.

This is an excellent site if you are prepared to be honest about what you eat and what exercise you take!
It's based on a food diary - thousands of foods listed plus you can enter details of you're own. The tools allow you to analyse your eating patterns and track your weight. It works out your fats/carbs/proteins ratio plus the % of other key nutrients. I realised I needed to cut down my fats and up my protein and that I need more calcium and iron.
It's allowed me to tackle the extra...

fantastic! all you do is put in what you have eaten for the day, then if its not already there-you add it to to catalogue of foods! it adds up your calories and fat for that day. if you did enough excersise for that day, and coverd your calories then you get a big green tick. you also can do food swaps! put in something that you like (alot) that is quite fatty with lots of calories-like chocolate-then click 'swap' it will bring up hundreds of different chocolate items and tell you how much...

Written on: 16/11/2009
Generally a good site although there are no miracles on there. The Food Diary feature is good but relies on you being honest enough to fill everything in. If you are the type that likes to eat 'anything' as long as you track the calorie content then you will find it helpful. The site logs the amount of fruit/veg that's eaten and also the amount of fat/calories... I can't help but feel it would be useful to track other things - perhaps protein and/or fibre?
The data base of foods is...

Excellent discipline, easy to use.
Not only keeps track but effectively advises you what's left so that you can work out what to have towards the end of the day, or how much extra you need to exercise- so maybe need to take that last minute 20 minutes walk round the block lats thing at night with the dog! Brilliant idea, practical and very easy to use!

I discovered this site after seeing it advertsied in my local paper. Its been developed in conjunction with Nottingham University and it isn't gimmicky like lots of diets I've seen. You start out with the usual personal profile, but then you can eat whatever you like as long as you keep within your weekly targets. Once you get going its really quick and easy to use. I've become quite hooked as it really makes me cut back on the fattening foods I used to eat! 18g of fat in a starbucks latte... (read more)
