So a coworker of mine suggested a fitness app the other day its called MyFitnessPal, and let me just say its pretty amazing specially for all of us who do need a lil help with the food to take care of the D.
Its a diary log where you can post all your meals and workouts, to count how many calories youve consumed the whole day, i find it super helpful beacause it has an inner food diccionary as well as the option of entering your food with a barcode reader if needed. The exercise section is the same and if youve worked out it reduces the calorie intake.
For those of you who find it a bit anoying cause no lie it is a bit, its a good way to keep up with your food intake to regulate bloodsugar and helping one realice how much we´re actually eating.
So if you guys feel like giving it a try i most recomend it :)
Yes it's great, I used it daily for 8 months and lost 20kg!
A fantastic site and really quick and easy to use when you get used to it.
Calorie restriction and management is the best way option for long term weightloss IMHO, 1500-2000 calories a day of wholefoods, lots of veggies, lean meats, nuts and seeds and an hours cardio a day and you're laughing.
I like this app "Lose It" more than myfitnesspal, although I haven't tried them again for a few years. When I tried mfp, the interface didn't seem as well-logicked as Lose It, in terms of the "food increments" database it seems. I agree these are very useful tools, both for scorekeeping and just sort of keeping track of stuff. Several times when I've used it, I'll use it for BG too, "geez, more PM jellybeans, maybe I should turn my bolus ratio down..."
