iPhone assisted dieting with Lose It!

personal things, technology | Monday, March 2nd, 2009

Lose It! is the perfect diet app for iPhone. first you tell it your height/weight and what your weight loss goal is (mine is “lose 1lb per week.” from that, it calculates how many calories per day you should be taking in.

then you keep a log of everything you eat, and it tracks the calories. if you do exercise, it deducts calories.

the nice thing about this app is that it has a database of most foods & exercises, or you can enter your own.

the key for me is that it turns dieting into a game, and you observe how everything you eat brings you towards that daily limit.

this past weekend i ‘iphone-ified’ the car so I’m all set for those commutes.
