Lose It!Reviews of loseit.com

Like the app, could use a thing or two but otherwise it is great for tracking

On the whole, I've been happy with this app. While I've always been mindful of the number of calories I consume, I've learned a lot about the importance of macronutrients and having approximately a third of your calories be counted as protein, a third for fat, and a third for carbohydrates. It was also helpful to be given the number of calories to consume to lose weight and reach my goal. The one suggestion I have is that supermarket brands could be updated to expand upon what items fall under a brand name and introduce new mainstream brands. The same would apply to restaurants as far as menu items, etc.

I use it for years now. Also owned a premium version. It was amazing with helping me with my sugar levels in pregnancy and now it became a way of life. I added my recipes and products and dieting in a healthy way has never been easier. I also recommend it to my followers.

Very unreliable… supposed verified information just means that somebody entered the nutritional information… that’s never checked. I entered a bunch of bogus information to test and it said it was a verified meal! Not to mention these people who make this bad app are like cash-strapped beggars on the street, the advertising and begging money every single say is over the top. Read the scary reviews at the Better Business Bureau (they don’t give refunds and make it impossible to cancel) and avoid this colossal waste of money.

I have used the app for over a year and lost 65 pounds. It does a great job of letting me have indulgent days and still stay on track. I love the calories & macros as well as how my fitness watch integrates into my calorie count. I have lost 50 pounds every 5 years of my adult life and have confidence that I finally understand how to sustain my current weight loss permanently.

This is a fabulous app! It makes setting goals easy, the food database is huge and it is easy to add your own foods and tailor your diet and exercise plan to suit your lifestyle. It gives you a sound understanding of impact of various foods and the macronutrients in graphs, which very much helps you learn from what you eat to adjust your diet accordingly. IMO, the android experience is far better than iOS format as it is easier to add, edit and delete foods. I've not had a customer service interaction, but I can say it is worth holding out for offers before committing to paid plans - but the paid plans are totally worth it if you are serious about tracking. I do think some refinement could be done to ensure consistency with goal forecasting as I'm getting a different date when logging (day streak forecast) to that in my goals section by about 5 weeks. 28 days in and 6kg lost, I'm making far more informed choices about my food, fasting and keeping to a calorie budget which is going to be long term sustainable for me. In terms of individualising baseline calorie goals, I think in the sign up process there was a link to a calorie needs calculator based on age, activity level etc, that was very helpful, but I couldn't find it again. This should be made more prominent to help people understand their calorie needs are perhaps less (or more) than the 2000kcal adult average so they can tailor their plans to their individual needs better.

The app calculated that I could have a modest weight loss of a pound per week at 1400 calories per day. Now that I’m eating 200 calories over a minimum of 1200 per day, I’m steadily gaining weight. This is garbage.

Seriously... You have to put your age in a calender that goes back month by month?? I'm 52 years old, it'll take me ten minutes to scroll all the way back to 1972! If they make it this unusable at hello, I don't trust it'll be user friendly in the long run...
