Today is my first day as an independent WISE student and I've already made progress. One goal of my project is to lose some of the weight I've gained over the last year. Today I was explaining this to a friend, and she told me about an app for iPhones called "MyFitnessPal." This app will help me immensely with this project and I am extremely happy her and I held this conversation.
I put in all my information, like weight, height, age, how long I plan to work out each day and how many days I plan to work out. This app even breaks down my workouts to strength or cardiovascular exercise. Based on all of that, it gave me the number of calories per day I should consume. The best part about the app is that I can enter in every snack or piece of food I have, like a Wegmans Caesar Salad with dressing, and it will calculate the amount of calories I have left to eat that day. This will be a vital tool for me to keep track of my weight loss and diet changes. And, to have it on my phone, which is with me 24/7 is just an added bonus.
