I must admit I really envy people who take pleasure in running, or working out, in general. Or those who can eat whatever they like, whenever they want to, and just don’t get fat. They don’t have to worry about keeping a diet, or lose their breath after running less than a mile. Oh, how I wish I could be one of them. But, for the rest of us, there’s My Fitness Pal. Just the friend you need to help you get rid of all those extra pounds.

I first came across My Fitness Pal over a year ago. The idea of the app got me really excited, and since I was in need of a diet, I tried it. And it worked! That is until I lost my way again, started eating all sorts of junk food all day long, relying on the fact that I had already lost the extra pounds, so what harm can one bag of chips do? So, today, as I came across My Fitness Pal again and recovered my previous [...]

There are so many food apps that you should feel inspired to cook or try something new every day. In theory. In practice, however, there’s never enough time to do so. And when you have the time to cook or the urge to try some new restaurant, you don’t know what to pick. Of course, Epicurious is always a great app to solve this problem. But it’s not the only one. Evernote Food is also an app that should be on every gourmande’s iPhone or iPad.

What I liked most about Evernote Food is that it’s not just a cookbook. Or a restaurant seeker. Or a check in and share your favorite meals kind of app. It’s all in one. And more.

With Evernote Food, the sky is the limit. You don’t have a list of dishes you can cook and that’s it. You have a multitude of recipes, each one directing you to another site, where you can find even more recipes to get you [...]

I am, what you would call, a veritable gourmand. I love food! And just looking at somebody else cooking makes me drool. But, when you have food allergies, it’s not always easy to enjoy a good meal. Especially when you can’t be sure of all the ingredients that went into that delicious meal sitting in front of you. And when you also have a peculiar allergy, like being allergic to dill, for example, it’s even harder to make sure it’s not somewhere hidden in your meal. Until you can taste it. And that’s when the nightmare begins.

But now, all your meals can be as pleasant, and most important, as safe as the ones you cook yourself. Because, with Eatible, you’re one tap away from discovering all the allergens in your meal, whether you’re in a restaurant, a Fast Food, or any other place that serves food.

With Eatible, you know what allergens [...]

Wanna Get Happy Right Now?

I don’t know about you, but around the end of the year, I feel a lot of pressure to get everything in order. It’s almost like the world will end on the 31st of December (oh, wait, that was on the 21st). You scramble left and right to put the final touches on your projects. If you’re self-employed, you need to get your financing in order. It seems to me that the holiday season should be more about relaxation, spending time with the family or just sitting on your butt all day long playing on your iPhone, iPad, PlayStation or what have you. If the holiday season frustrates you, then perhaps you need a way to get happy during these “stressful” times. This is where Get Happy comes in as a paid download from the AppStore.

The iPhone app was designed by a practicing clinical psychologist to deliver simple daily tips to its [...]

This week I’m going to eat healthier. I have to give up on junk food and start eating more vegetables. You probably tell these things to yourself every week. And somehow, you end up eating the same things day after day. Because looking through tons of sites to find the right recipe, preparing it and creating a menu for the week to come is just too much of a time waster. But what if there was an app who could make planning your weekly meals easier? This is MealGuru and you can find it in the AppStore.

MealGuru is the help you always needed to create a balanced, healthy menu for the next 2 weeks to come. MealGuru suggests meals for every day of the week, but it allows you to change them at any time so that you eat exactly what you want, when you want it.

FitnessPlanner Plans To Make You Lose Weight Through Stress

Ok, perhaps that is a harsh title, but I was so excited to get my hands on a 4.5 rated app for the iPad that promised that it was all I needed to make my weight loss resolution happen that only the disappointment that followed after using the app could match it. But after just a few minutes spent with FitnessPlanner, the All-Inclusive Weight Loss Management System for iPad, I started to get the feeling that I might lose weight just by reading through the app’s documentation.

The idea behind FitnessPlanner will surely appeal to you, as it has to me. It’s an app for the iPad that will empower you to lose weight and stay healthy by helping you understand your dietary needs and physical exercise requirements and based on your current age, weight, height and BMI (Body Mass Index) plus your goal weight.

The equation is fairly simple. The app promises to help you [...]
