BellaOnline Forums Beauty and Self Body Image Do you use any apps to help with weight loss?

I am a geek! I love gadgets and apps. I am always looking for the next best thing to help with my weight goals. Fitbit, Myfitnesspal, Fooducate, Withing scales. I try them all.

How about you? Have you found an app or gadget that works well for you?

My favorite app is the "Lose it" app. It keeps a record of your frequent meals so that you can log them again. Also, it can give specifics on recipes you make in regards to protein, carbs, fat, calories etc. My favorite feature is if you have the option to scan on your device, you can scan the UPC code on what ever item you are consuming and it will bring up all the nutrition info to log for your daily intake.

Hi Patricia,
That sounds like a really useful app. I like the scanning option. Does it have most of the foods that you scan in the database? I have found some apps have too few products to be useful. Do you find that you use it on a regular basis?

Thanks for posting and hope you have a great day!

Yes Nadine, it surprised me with some of the items I found in the database. Out of all the apps I've tried, this one is the best!!

i never found a weight loss app, if there have, i think it will be popular, as many a girls around me want to lose weight.

Yes there are many great weight loss apps available. If you do a search on the internet for weight loss apps, it will bring up several for you to check out. "Lose it" and "My Fitness Pal" are two popular ones you may want to check out.

for me I drink fresh juice everyday

Fresh juice is great! I love having smoothies with fresh fruits and vegetables

I like My Fitness Pal

I use My Fitness Pal because it allows me to have a quick overview of what I am taking in every day. I have found that it even prevents me from eating certain things that I might otherwise have put in my mouth. Especially if you are consistent with entering EVERYTHING you eat you start to become more aware of the tiny snacks that we eat throughout the day.
