Fellow fatties (er
I mean friends 
)
like so many of you, in 3 days, Im embarking on my annual new years resolution to lose weight. Im sure many of you have downloaded the free calorie tracker apps like Lose It, Livestrong, or MyFitnessPal. The problem is that Ive tried these and I absolutely HATE counting calories! I last about four days and then fizzle out.
But alas! I have found some apps on App Advices best of list and these are definitely going to be in my weight loss cabinet! Ive downloaded them all, and listed my favorite three apps from their list.
My absolute favorite: intelli-Diet
iTunes Link: App Store - intelli-Diet App | Weight Loss App
Why I like it: For those like me who dont like counting calories, this is the Rolls-Royce of meal planning. It automatically provides the foods I should be eating and even calculates the exact portion sizes.
My second favorite: FoodTrackerPro
iTunes Link: App Store - FoodTrackerPro - Daily Eating Log
Why I like it: This app doesnt provide meal plans, but is good at keeping tabs at the number of servings I should be eating across all the different food groups. Big thing again, no counting calories for these.
My last one: GymBuddy
Why I like it: Although this one isnt a diet app, you need something to keep track of your exercise. But I think you need to continuously improve to get healthier, not just do the same thing you did last week. I like this app because it time and date stamps every set and rep you peform. Pretty useful if you ask me.
Ive been using all 3 inter-changably since I binged during Christmas with the relatives and so far, so good! Id be interested to hear what other people like or have used. Id like to keep this to apps that dont force you to count calories though. There are so many of those, so let me know if you find any meal planner apps that arent on this list
