Lose It App Review and Tutorial (EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW!)

LOSE IT APP REVIEW AND TUTORIAL (EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW!) // Want to learn more about the Lose It! calorie tracking app? In this video, I go over all of Lose It’s features, demonstrate how you can track your food and exercise and explain what I like and don’t like about the app in a full, comprehensive review and tutorial.

Lose It is similar to the calorie counting app MyFitnessPal, but is quite unique in the design interface and user experience.

There is both a free and premium version of the app, available for both Apple and Android devices.

I'm switching to Lose It because My Fitness Pal wants to make us pay to scan barcodes now. NO THANKS :)!

After 5 years using MFP I've now switched to Lose It and I like it much better! Should've switched a long time ago. Great video. Very helpful. Thanks!!

Been using mfp since around 2013-14 but recently switched to Lose It which imo is better overall. Nice UI, syncs well with iPhone apps, super fast scanner. Not much room to complain.

Yup, started trail period yesterday. I will likely enroll in Premium account to enable integration w/ my Garmin watch. Very helpful review. Thx …

Hi Kevin, thanks for the review and tutorial, I found it very useful. Like all apps, once you understand how to navigate between the different screens it is quite intuitive. Your tutorial did this very effectively. Thanks again cj

Very comprehensive and well delivered review. Thanks bro. I will also check your review for My Fitness Pal.

[flomurphy]

Yes, starting in the morning. I've used it previously stood while ago

[alianagoduco]

I have this app, thank you for clarifying and making it easier for me to understand!

Awesome review and video - but, how do you track things you add to your foods? For example, for your oatmeal you selected, what if you add say brown sugar, butter, etc.? What about adding salt and pepper to the egg? Dressing on a salad? Especially if you get the salad at a restaurant? I've always struggled with this part of "counting" the calories - and sadly, they are the parts that always add the hidden calories that keep me from being in a deficit. Appreciate any thoughts or input. I know this is an older post... hope to find an answer to this one.
Thanks!

When I’m scanning a can of soup for a new recipe do I have to multiply the single serving for each nutritional value then enter it?

I am missing connection with adidas/Runtastic and/or Polar apps. In my case this would be the trigger for paying in Lose it! Until then I am using the free features, ready to leave it if I find a feature rich calorie counter connected to the mentioned fitness apps.

Thanks for the video. Getting started on premium with the January special.

Quick question, I just signed up for premium Lose it two days ago and am trying to figure out the calorie burn bonus.. do I need to continue to add my workouts in? It looks like there is an option to include the workout stats in the calorie burn bonus or to keep it separate. If I keep it separate, it lowers my total calorie intake but if I include it, it adds the calories back to my total calories for the day. I have my apple watch connected to the app so it is able to track through there. Please let me know, thank you!

How do you get rid of a food item that you put on there by mistake it has a little checkmarks but once you check it, they still don’t go away

[deecross]

with the free version, is there a way to see a total for all of your meals for the day?

[deecross]

Yes, I'm going to try it. Thanks for this review.

[mikel]

What is that second bar code scanner for? When you were scanning your food, there's another scanner on the lower right .

[Janus]

Hi Kevin. Question. What is the difference between the over budget icon that is yellow in color containing 3 dots and the over budget icon that is red in color with the up arrow? Is it the amount of over budget that determines which icon is used?

[Bushcraft]

Great assistance which certification do you have Kevin

[ronieelise]

I tried both (MFP) and I prefer LOSE IT as well!
