Any experience of Oviva?

I’m struggling with my weight massively and I’ve only been using this app since Tuesday, but my motivation is poor at the moment.

Can anyone share their experience of using this app please?

Hi OP.

I just saw your post after doing a search about Oviva.

I've been referred to use the app as I was found to be borderline for prediabetes. I know it's because of my weight gain.

Only been using the app a few days so far.

I'm not sure whether to add a more "complete" food tracking app like nutracheck. Oviva is only letting me log three meals not any snacks I have (only one or two so far but it would have been handy to have been able to log them some how?!)

How are you finding it?

I'm terrible in terms of will power but I know I need to make changes and hold myself responsible.

I was given access to it after being diagnosed with T2 diabetes. This was during covid so I had the app and 2 phonecalls.

I prefer to use my Fitbit phone app

Hi @Iamawomenphenominally

I’ve lost 3lbs in a week, so it’s working well. I wasn’t doing too great until the coach phoned me and we set 5 goals.

You can add snacks with the meals - if you swipe left on the meals, you’ll see a pencil icon to edit how many meals and snacks you’d like to log. I changed it from 3 to 5, as I log two snacks and 3 meals a day.

It’s actually really helping me keep motivated.
