I knew that in order to be successful with this whole "get healthy" thing, I'd need a way to track my calories. My initial thought was to pick up a cute mini-notebook and a few pens in fun colors (cute school supplies do wonders to motivate me). I thought I'd just keep my notebook with me and manually log everything....
thankfully the Man recently convinced me that we needed smartphones. I felt it was a HUGE indulgence (and still do) but I am using mine for everything! When I finally thought to check the AppMarket for calorie apps, I was overwhelmed by the number of options available.
After reading a few reviews, I decided to go with the myfitnesspal app. It seemed pretty easy to use, ranked high in reviews, and was free!
I've only been using it a week, but I love the simplicity of the calorie counter. It's great because I can search for the foods I'm eating and it automatically totals the calories
(as well as other detailed nutrition information.)

I also love the fact that the app syncs with the website, so information can be added through either method. I haven't really explored the site very much, but it seems to have a lot of fun features.
I'll be sure to post more when I have time to check it out.
