Lose it! (CNET 100: iPhone Apps)

If you're trying to lose weight, a surefire method is to burn more calories than you take in. Simple, efficient. Why then are so many people overweight? Well, probably because they don't have Lose it!. OK, the reason is undoubtedly more complicated than that and likely involves some emotional and physical issues I'm not prepared to dive into for a slideshow caption. However, I'd be willing to bet that if you wanted to lose weight and used Lose it!, you'd have a better chance at achieving that goal than if you didn't. Hmmm, yeah. I think I can get away with saying that.

Anyway, Lose it! is a free calorie-tracking utility that allows you to chart your weight loss goals, and track meals and workouts. It includes a fairly extensive database, allows you to quickly add previously stored meals to your tally, and can break down how much protein, carbs, and fat you're taking in every day or week. Lose it! is simply a great tool for anyone looking to fit into those almost-loose-enough jeans.

Price: Free
