Comments on: Lose It: Count Calories, Track Exercise to Reach Your Fitness Goals http://www.appcraver.com/lose-it/ news and reviews for iphone apps Thu, 11 Mar 2010 20:38:22 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: Zucky http://www.appcraver.com/lose-it/comment-page-1/#comment-9139 Zucky Tue, 09 Mar 2010 09:38:49 +0000 http://www.appcraver.com/?p=12322#comment-9139 This is the best app! I've been working out trying to lose weight for al ost a year prior to using Lose It! No success. Matter of fact from Thanksgiving to just after New Years I gained almost 20 pounds. Enough was enough. Started using Lose It consistantly and slowly started losing weight the first few weeks. No cheating. If I have a bad day or two and go over my daily goal by thousands of calories I record it. For me over time seeing the facts has changed my eating habbits. Down 30 pounds since the beginning with about 10 more to go. The adjust For your own metabolism is a great feature. Bottom line is if you can be honest you will lose weight or at least see on "paper" why you didn't. This is the best app! I’ve been working out trying to lose weight for al

My boyfriend has lost 16 lbs. It does take time to add the food and sometimes frustrating when you go out to eat at a restaurant which is not on the list, but it works!!! I love it. I’ve lost 12 lbs.

I thought it was going to be a pain to have to write down everything I eat but it really isn't. I agree with some of the other reviewers that the calorie counting is really eye opening and makes you think twice about eating things you thought weren't bad for you (i.e I had no idea that peanuts on a salad addd another 240 calorie!). I just started it and hope to lose a pound a week. So far so good and I have not felt deprived yet, Started using this app this week after a friend at work recommended it.

My wife noticed my progress and immediately loaded it on her iPhone and now won't eat a meal without logging it. A really super program despite the time needed to enter data. I can see me reaching my goal because it re-educates you to what is healthy and the price that you pay for eating that extra slice of bread. I would recommend it to anyone needing to lose weight.

You really don't know what you are eating until you start tracking your calories. I've tried other diets before...and never lost anything. With this program, if you use it properly...you can lose so much weight! Last year I lost 27 lbs in about 12 weeks (down to 112 lbs) - I went off the program...and gained about 13 back. But I've just started the program again and can't believe how fast you start to see results. It's really hard to stick to the calories - but believe me...if you do...you will lose weight consistenty. I've shared this with my friends at work and they have shared it with their friends and together - we have all (7 of us) lost over 400 lbs. Try it!!! I just love this ap.

A large slice of sourdough is around 274 calories! As for the pizza, that doesn't seem right, but I enter in all the exact calorie content directly from the foods I eat. Every brand, serving size, etc. is going to vary quite a bit in calories. I've been using this app for two weeks and have lost 8 lbs. I have to agree with Vanessa that it really does make you more aware of what you are eating and when you are looking at the caloric intake of some foods you step back and have this "wow" moment and often times you can easily do without it. I don't find it that time consuming to enter in my meals, and I often find that I enjoy it. Actually, many slices of bread are 170 calories. A large slice of sourdough is around 274 calories!

A slice of bread is not 170 calories. A slice of pizza is not 900 calories. And, unfortunately, a glass of wine is a bit more than what Lose It tells you. I'd like to know where they get their info.

Having a calorie counter and exercise tracker at your finger tips MAKES you take notice of your eating habits and change them for the better.
