MyFitnessPal Calorie Counter
One of my goals for 2015 was to lose about 15 pounds and get down to 170. I’ve realized over the years the losing weight is 90% diet and 10% exercise. I get plenty of exercise, but I mindlessly eat more than I should. I decided to start tracking my calories to help me be more mindful of what I am eating. I had typically used Lose It!, but I decided to give MyFitnessPal a try based on a recommendation from a friend.
