Five of the Best Apps For Getting In Shape and Losing Weight

When you have the right tools, everything in life is easier and more efficient.  The same goes for living a healthy lifestyle in our digital age.  How can we use our electronic devices to assist us in making better choices day to day?  Below are five great FREE apps for getting in shape and eating better to help you reach your wellness goals.

• Everest -available for IOS.  We can't start any venture without first having a goal and a plan! "Whether you want to drop a few pounds, travel the world, learn a new language, or start saving more each month, the step-by-step tips and encouragement from other users will help inspire you to reach your personal "summit." Use the app to set reminders, organize smaller mini-goals, and connect with other people on the same path. Why It's Cool: Take photos, share comments on Facebook and Twitter, and interact with other Everest users — even if your journey is a solitary one, the app makes it easy to get support from friends and other goal-setters."

• Fooducate available for iOS and Android.  This app is easy to use and helps in the grocery store.  "The app allows users to scan items right in the store and will highlight the product's positive and negative attributes. It grades each item based on its "healthiness," and will even offer up a healthier alternative if one is available."

•  MyFitnessPal available for  iOS, Android, Windows Phone, and BlackBerry. 'With a database of more two million (that's right, million) food items, the platform makes it easy for users to keep track of calories and so much more.'

•  Runkeeper available for iOS and Android. "RunKeeper can track the duration, length, calories burned, and more of your favorite outdoor fitness activity.  Why It's Cool: Not only can users track their activities, but they can share their workouts on social media, connect with other users in the app, and analyze their data after hitting the showers."

•  Lumosity Brain Trainer Available for iOS. Keeping our brains sharp and young is just as important as our body.  "The Brain Trainer app wants to become something like a gym for your brain. Developed by a team of neuroscientists, it features games that enhance memory, attention, and creativity. Why It's Cool: Just by inputting stats like age and gender, users get personalized brain-training plans that target different areas of cognitive function. Then they can track how close they are to Einstein status with the Brain Performance Index. The app even lets users see how their sleep and mood affect their brainpower."

I use these apps every day and they make a difference in my health and keeping track of my progress!  Try them today!
