My Fitness Pal

Here is my updated weight loss. I wasn't able to weigh in on the 28th so I had to weigh in on the 3rd of this month BUT I was happy to see I lost 3.3lbs already! I'm also now using a phone app called my fitness pal and what it does is takes all your basic info height, weight, age, gender, and how many pounds you want to loose each week. I have mine set at 2.0lbs per week and to get to my goal weight of ___ I have a total intake of 1,380 calories I can have each day. I'm happy because you can either manually enter the calories, you can scan the bar code of a specific item, OR you can do a search on the food item you are looking for. Its a great way to keep track of what you are eating but the best part is when you work out you can put in how long you worked out and what you did and it will calculate how many calories you burned. I'm only on day 3 of using this and so hopefully on the 28th my number's are lower but if not I'm SURE they will be in December. 

Something you might be wondering is "What happens when you reach your goal weight?" Well the best part about that is you can calculate how many calories a day you can have to maintain your weight. And if you eat to much and go over your calorie intake for the day it will tell you "if you do this everyday in 5 weeks you will weigh..." and then it will tell you so it keeps you honest and in check. I'm thinking this is an app I don't mind having for the REST of my life!!! 


I'm so excited about loosing weight now with this handy dandy tool. I can't help but get excited for how much I'm going to loose in the next few weeks!!!
