Calorie Counter PRO MyNetDiary

I’ve been using this app for about 4-5 years. They have continually updated it and brought fresh helpful ways to customize the input and tracking of food, water, activity, nutrients, measurements, etc. I personally like that there are various pre-synced food, and that you can build foods that you eat all the time into menus, for easy input. The connection to iPhone health app and wrist worn activity trackers is also helpful. But the customization features are the best. If you don’t care about how many grams of fat you eat no biggie, but if you have a liver issue and need to track that you can. Same with diet that cycle on n off of calories or people like me who have wicked about of allergies so my foods I can eat are limited, but I can double check that I’m getting proper nutrition because it tracks vitamins and minerals “behind the scenes”. If you wanna drop 5 pounds just set a goal and it’ll help you see the calorie or activity changes needed. I don’t use this app every day, I use it intermittently to check on my diet or motivate a change. I found this app long after I lost all the weight gained from having babies. But it helps in so many ways. I am a health, nutrition and fitness teacher, and after much research I found this app to be the most flexible and useful. After about 2 years I finally bought the premium upgrade, totally worth it. Do that early. I never use the “on line” version that syncs w this app. I find the iPhone app to be enough for me.

For someone like me, this app provides me with all the detailed data that I need to learn what is making me feel the way I do. After learning about how deficient I was in Vitamin D and how I felt just three days after starting a D3 supplement daily. I was absolutely blown away. I’m 47 and I felt 60! I started Keto and tracking my steps and exercise with iPhone and Apple Watch. MyNetDiary was the top app suggestion by the apple health app. I NEVER get paid apps but I bought this one. I was not disappointed at all. The app alone is super informative and useful. Also I would never consider subscribing to “Premium” services. BUT as of the time of writing this review, I am 4 days into my week trial and I have already decided to go with the yearly subscription. I started my Journey at 411lbs, constantly taking pain relievers and copious amounts of Caffeine for energy and joint and muscle pain. 1 1/2 Months later I’m down to 385lbs and have virtually stopped taking Ibuprofen. This app and service is THE best tool in my arsenal for my health. Once you set it up for your Fueling Habits “Diet”, (I hate the word diet), You will be amazed at what you can accomplish with the knowledge of what is going into your “machine”and how it affects your body and mindset. I also NEVER Write reviews so this “essay” is also a testament to how freakin awesome MyNetDiary is. Have a great day and do whatever it takes to feel awesome!

I've used this food diary on and off for years. It is easy to use and gets easier as time goes on. The bar scanner is super convenient and I have only discovered two or three food items the scanner did not recognize. You pair this app with an inexpensive digital food scale and you will be able to count calories like a boss! Follow a good eating plan and measure everything and you will get results. I would advise that you set yourself up as a sedentary user no matter what level of activity you do. I am up and moving all the time and was racing bicycles a few years ago. The activity setting will give you a basic metabolic level which is the calorie count you need just to maintain your present weight. The sedentary category will give you the lowest "upper" calorie restriction. That's where you want to start and then limit calories below that. It will work! Last April I was at 184. Now it's September and I am at 165! This app has been a tremendous teacher and watchdog for me. It reminds me to be careful about what I shove in my mouth and shows me the cost of the mindless grazing I used to do. We live in amazing times and this app, while not perfect, has enriched my life and helped me healthy and happy. Get this. Don't cheat! Weigh everything and be patient. Move as much as you can. Don't forget that simple walking is a great thing. Good luck!
