Back to Basics User Reviews

Top reviews

Highly recommended

As a health professional I am always on the look out for apps and websites that use evidence based practice, and resonate with the same messages and values that I try to use to empower my clients. It can be so difficult to find reliable and trustworthy health advice with all the white noise out there on social media. Back to Basics is easy to use, the recipes are quick, easy and delicious, and I would not hesitate to recommend to my family, friends or clients.

Back to basics

The back to basics app is a well designed app.
Having been on many diets, the philosophy behind this program is refreshing and liberating. The meal suggestions are fabulous- with easy to get ingredients and easy to cook. There is no calorie counting but checking in with your body to determine what it needs.
I love the videos, which are focussed and emphases health above everything else.
I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to make small changes to being a healthier you.

Great App

I love Lyndi’s approach, the recipes are great and it’s great value for money.

I would also say their customer service is one of the best!

A refreshing insight on health

I’m really enjoying Back to Basics along with Lindy’s “no wellness wankery” podcast.
Lindy is a breath of fresh air! She encourages people to eat well & exercise for their physical & mental well being - NOT to fit into a pair of jeans.
As someone who has experienced disordered eating & fallen into the trap of “thin in beautiful” thinking - I wish I had discovered Lindy a long time ago. Not weighing myself took a bit of getting used to, however I now feel so much happier & more relaxed.

Best food and exercise ap!!

This ap is wonderful! So many great and delicious meal idea that are healthy, satisfying and family and time friendly.

I’ve tried a few of the exercise videos and wow I’ve enjoyed the workout and really felt it the next day. I appreciate the size inclusive bodies which is a refreshing change.

As someone who after years and years of dieting is at their last resort and was just about to book in a date for bariatric surgery I’m super thankful for the B2B ap and the relationship it’s helping me build with my mind, my body and food in general.

Delicious meals and easy to use

Loving the app. Amazing value - meal planner with delicious, nutritious meals, exercise classes and mindset videos and mini- courses. Ingredient list can go straight to online shopping too!
Has reduced the stress of planning meals for the week.

Life changing

Lyndi’s approach is unparalleled. I quite literally went from someone who had a life long struggle with food, was an emotional eater, never cooked and relied on lite n easy lunches and microwaved dinners. My friends and family can’t believe my transformation. I’m cooking delicious meals every week and I’m eating healthy (without sacrifice) and exercising because I WANT to! I cook almost all of my lunches and dinners now. It’s quick, easy and delicious. This approach is so effortless and most importantly it’s sustainable. Could not recommend this more for anyone else who has a troubled relationship with food, fallen victim to fad diets and been in a constant cycle of “eating good” then binging the weight back on. I don’t even care about my weight anymore. I feel so good. I feel strong and healthy!

Best App & Lifestyle

The recipes are divine, the support is amazing and information that’s in the app is well worth the investment. It’s got some fabulous features to plan and shop for meals and snacks and other benefits too with the mini courses, exercises and all the extras. Highly recommended and such a great way to implement intuitive eating and get off the diet merry go round for good 💗

Enjoying the app!

The recipes are delicious and are super easy and quick. No faffing with loads of ingredients. Videos are bite-size and easy to watch.
Shopping list feature is really handy too, and great that you can add other items to the list. Would be great if the list could be an ongoing saved list that you can continually add to/delete from as it seems you have to make a new list each time you log in and it doesn’t save stuff. Eg I took two separate trips to the supermarket but had to create the list twice, but by then I didn’t know what I already had/needed to buy.
Also, would be great to add favourite meals directly from planning tool.
Planning to try workouts too, also short and sweet to squeeze into the day.

Thank you so much for your review and thoughtful feedback. We really appreciate it! The shopping list issue does sound a little strange as it should save and then be accessible via the Food menu and then by selecting Shopping List on the top navigation bar. We love your suggestion about having a favourites filter within the Add to Planner section and this is now updated in the latest version of the app. We really appreciate your support and don't hesitate to let us know if anything else comes to mind!

Love this app

I absolutely love this app and everything that Lyndi stands for.
Many of my favourite meals are from this app, they are also easy to make. The exercises are fun and challenging.
The app also has a pregnancy and postpartum section including pregnancy safe meals. My osteo and obstetrician were both very impressed with the program and have recommended it to others.
