Five Apps To Keep Healthy Weight Loss and Fitness on Track

Healthy Eating and Meal Planning Apps

Keep in mind that diet means the type of foods you consume, not necessarily a way to lose weight. By tracking the type of eating you do, you are more likely to maintain a healthy ‘diet’. 

Fooducate (Free for iOS, Android). First prize winner in the U. S. Surgeon General’s Healthy App Challenge, Fooducate goes beyond counting calories to help users achieve healthy weight loss and fitness for overall healthy life.

Users can maintain a healthy diet by tracking the quality of calories, not just the quantity, by scanning over 250,000 barcodes to see a specific nutrition grade (A, B, C or D). Fooducate also integrates seamlessly with Apple’s Health app, allowing users to compare calorie consumption and burning.

I plan on using a fitness tracker along with a weight loss app to monitor my goals. I was under my pre-baby weight prior to Halloween, but the holiday binge has got me back up a few pounds. I’m ready to shake it loose!
