Slimming World Newbie- online diary?

[Buglife]

I've just started Slimming World today (had a bit of a bug though so didn't really want to eat!) and I'm checking out the app and website. I can't seem to find an online food diary option to keep track of what I'm having in the day (I know it's not important with free foods so much but I would like to keep track of healthy extras and syns). Is there such a thing? If not do people food diary informally on paper etc as it might be helpful to see what good weeks looked like and where things go wrong etc. I know the group leader asked us to a food diary she can look at but I want to keep track online for me.

There's nothing on the app, but there is on the website.

Yeah I've just found it on there! It's not very user friendly though. Something to calculate syns at least!

Your right, it's not very user friendly! Ive resorted to pen and paper

I use the app's food search function if I need to find the syns out of something (the search is a bit rubbish though) and I have a bookmark on my phone home screen to the weight loss planner which works really well on a mobile. I have seen though that they will be introducing a tracker/planner soon on the app which will be god.

Yes, you can do it online, but yes, it is useless! I'm an online member, and gave up trying to use it as it takes ages. I've tried various methods (paper, notepad, diary apps, calendar) and didn't manage to find anything that was particularly good. I've been doing it for over a year now and have resorted to adding stuff up in my head, but I wouldn't recommend doing that at the start.

I use this one

Pen and paper here

Apparently the app tracker will be coming later this year and I can't wait. I also can't believe how long it's taken them to do!!
