Lose it! Reviews and details

Social recommendations and mentions

• Feeling discouraged

  I have tried crash diets in the past and have never felt this good or this energetic. I'm going to keep going like this until I'm at my goal weight. I gained 60 lbs from taking this antipsych med called zyprexa (it's known for extreme weight gain fast but I was like I'd rather be mentally ok than fit and thin right now so I'm basically trying to reverse it. I use loseit.com to track my cals and exercise works... Source: about 1 year ago

• no motivation

  Follow that guide and that timing, and you'll be able to start putting some data around your diet. Start with your regular, normal food. My favorite tool for this is now-better LoseIt! Over MyFitnessPal which has been on the decline for years. Source: about 1 year ago

• [23] I gained about 10 kgs in the past year. starting from zero knowledge on weight loss any advice? pics are from 2021 dec and last week (2023 mar)

  You can use a TDEE calculator to work out approximately how many calories your body is using per day. You need to eat in a deficit of around 15-20% of your TDEE to see decent weight loss. You can use an app like Lose It! To track your food intake and see how many calories you're eating. People are notoriously bad at underestimating the calories that they consume so I really recommend you do some calorie tracking.... Source: about 1 year ago

• Is 1200 calories actually enough?

  At 1200 kCal/day you'll certainly lose weight, but it probably won't be safe... My older-but-similarly-sized spouse gets about 1600 (to lose weight) if she sits on the couch, so being active will certainly bump that up. We use an app called lose it to track both food and exercise and it seems to do a decent enough job for me and her. So your 1200 may be fine if you're a couch potato, but it sounds like you need...

• Progress tracking app?

  I use LoseIt. I've used it since I started on phentermine back in 2007, so it has a lot of historical data for me. It has a good barcode scanner and remembers your most frequently added items so once you put in a meal, you can just click into that section when adding foods and it will have the full list of ingredients from meals there.

• Are all food-logging apps terrible?

  Loseit.com meets #2 and #3, but has no API. Web UI is best in class IMO, but has not been updated in 10 years. I just wish it had an API. (best is has is daily spreadsheet export emails.). Source: about 1 year ago

• Basic beginner tips for losing weight by calorie counting?

  I've put my information into loseit.com and have come out with a target of 1477 calories per day. Source: about 1 year ago

  This has been a game changer. I follow WW and also loseit.com (to count protein intake, calories and sugar). Source: about 1 year ago

• Question

  My (American Food) favorite tool for tracking is now-better LoseIt! Over MyFitnessPal which has been on the decline for years. However, there are several considerations -- one of them being your particular cuisine. Source: over 1 year ago

• custom recipes on LoseIt app

  I can't answer any of your other questions, but it does appear as though LoseIt has a website that you can use to enter foods, and presumably meals. https://loseit.com/. Source: over 1 year ago

• First time shopping for a week in decades.

  Today will be my first time going shopping for groceries for a week in a very long time. I started with cooksmarts.com a few weeks ago, and I've finally gotten into it enough that I trust I will make all of the meals. The meals there, along with tracking in loseit.com have been very helpful to me. I think it is still a little early to tell what my weight loss rate is, but at least over the last week it is looking... Source: over 1 year ago

  Give Lose It (https://loseit.com/) a try. I have used it a lot years ago and it's pretty cool. Source: over 1 year ago

• I'm not seeing how many calories I am under on the app.

  Is there a way you can log in to loseit.com via a PC? You can see the weekly totals there. Source: over 1 year ago

• Am I doing this right?

  Use a calorie counting app to count up how much you eat -- let us know what it says when you've put in a full day. The LoseIt! App at https://loseit.com/ is a good one for this. Or just make a spreadsheet, include everything, and use Google to look up how many calories things have. Source: over 1 year ago

• You just saw me eat three slices of pizza, I don’t have an eating disorder because I count calories

  I can get pretty obsessive about it though. I cook most meals from scratch and to figure out the calories per serving, I have to weigh every ingredient and then look up the nutritional value. This might look crazy to some people, but it works. I use loseit.com to track my caloric intake and there's an option to save recipes. I just enter the values and it does the rest. It was worth the $40 I paid for the annual... Source: over 1 year ago

• Question about the loseit.com app

  I'm using the loseit.com app (and website) to track calories and exercise. On the app screen for logging daily meals and exercise there is a "I'm done logging" button at the bottom. I use this to make sure I've accounted for each day. And Loseit keeps tracks of the number of consecutive days you've been tracking. Source: about 2 years ago

• What do you say in these situations?

  From my food logs on loseit.com: 40-70 g of protein a day without meat and without even trying. Source: about 2 years ago

• Where is the "done logging" button on loseit.com website (not app)

  Thanks for removing this. I guess we wouldn't want me or any of the other people trying to lose weight using the loseit.com website or app knowing how to do this. Source: over 2 years ago
