Lose It!
W.C. Fields said, “Everything I do is either illegal, immoral, or fattening.” I don’t wear a big old top hat, but I relate to those words. Until I downloaded Lose It, I never knew how many calories I took in. This is a GREAT little free app where you enter your goal weight along with some other stats and it will tell you how many calories you should take in daily to achieve your goal. You can tweak the amount of time to get to your goal weight and it automatically adjusts your daily caloric intake to achieve it. The best thing is that it shines a light on how many calories you eat over time. Right now, for example, I have 1200 calories left to consume today to stay under to my daily target. When I have dinner, I will enter what I will eat and the app will tell me how many calories my meal is. If I go over may daily target, it’s ok because I can make up for it tomorrow, since Lose It tracks your calories over time. Plus, it will factor in exercize too, so if you want to eat one cookie more, take a walk to be sure you burn the calories. It makes losing weight like a role playing game, but instead of leveling up, well you, uh… level down… I guess. Price: Free.
