My new pal!


I've been logging everything I eat (the good and the bad!) for the past week with my new phone application, thanks to my coach's advice.  So far so good!  3lbs down!  I count, measure and weigh everything I eat and enter my food in my food journal.  I love this new app!!!  Love the barcode option too!  One quick scan of the barcode and voila!  Calories entered!  This application (My Fitness Pal) ROCKS!  It takes in consideration your weight, your height and your age and calculates how many calories you need to eat per day, in order to lose weight.  For those who don't have access to applications on their phones/blackberry units and still want to log your food in, you can access it free, online : http://www.myfitnesspal.com/  This app also logs in the exercise you do (you enter it in) and tells you how many extra calories you are allotted that day.  I did some major weeding at the front (OMG, the pile of weeds was huge!) and logged it in.  I don't think my coach was convinced at how much I had done, until I sent her the pic!  She told me to show them who's boss!  LOL!  Burnt lots of calories that day! 

I used to do sparkspeople before, but this is simpler and I really like it!   I'm hooked to my new pal!
