"Great App! Simple to use!"
Version: Lose It! 3.6.3
Pros
Easy to use! No Ads!
Cons
No Bar Code scanning
-
"easy to use"
Version: Lose It! 2.2
Pros
easy to use
Cons
haven't found a major one yet. Just wish it could read my mind
Summary
keeps it simple
-
"This is a great iPhone app to help you lose weight."
Version: Lose It! 2.2
Pros
Tracks calories, excercising and weight. Links with Facebook, and others (I think), and you can share your progress with other LoseIt users of your choosing
Cons
The food database is pretty good but is missing a lot. The recipe creation is not the greatest.
-
"Good but still room for improvement"
Version: Lose It! 2.1
Pros
I love the user interface
Cons
Food search is slow and clunky
Summary
I would recommend this to a friend but after I used it for several weeks I became annoyed with the food search. Flat Belly Revolution (http://www.flatbellyrevolution.com), as an example, has a faster search especially for foods I have previously eaten.

"Everything You Need to Manage Calories"
Version: Lose It! 2.1
Pros
The most success I have had dieting was using an accountants log and a paperback book for calories. This program has everything I need to track my intake and tracks my weight loss progress. I can view my weekly intake also.
Cons
If they could figure out a way to weigh portions with my Ipod touch this would be perfect. I have not discovered any cons yet.
Summary
Another reviewer commented on less than dietary restaurants and fast food. I am salesman and I am often on the road. Perhaps Ruby Tuesday or McDonalds is not ideal but if I have a calorie budget I can usually find it or a reasonable appoximation on Lose-It. The goal is to honestly track your habits and to known when to stop eating. If you cannot succeed using Lose-it your problem is discipline or addiction not the Lose-it program.

"Great program."
Version: Lose It! 2.1
Pros
Easy. Calorie counting made easy since my iPhone goes everywhere with me. This program is the biggest reason that I was able to drop 40 pounds in three months. Couple calorie counting with healthy eating and exercise and you WILL drop weight.
Cons
Honestly, it's the best calorie counting program out there. Since real calorie counters aren't going to be going to Ruby Tuesdays, etc., that info is superfluous. A daily healthy eating tip (like Livestrong) would be a nice addition.
Summary
I love it. See above.

"Easy to use, amazing library of food"
Version: Lose It! 2.1
Pros
Program allows you to set goals and track calorie use very easily to achieve a gradual and healthy weight loss. Includes adding exercise sessions to increase daily allowed calorie intake.
Cons
Does not include weight of portion sizes. Does not include suggested meals or any kind of meal planning. Does not analyze and notify about poor diet.
Summary
I have seen many suggestions to weight loss that is based on counting calories. This is easier said than done unless you have Lose It! It is simply great for counting calories.
Lose It will not only help you track calories that you have taken in, but it can easily be used to check calories in foods that you are considering eating/buying.
Lose It has an amazing library of nutrition for grocery store items as well as fast food restaurants. Allows you to choose portion sizes and it has been within 10% accuracy when comparing to nutrition information on boxes that I have checked against. -
"it forgot all my entered data"
Version: Lose It! 1.2
Pros
didn't crash
Cons
when I updated my iPhone operating system, this program forgot all my entered data - weights, recipes, records, etc. It was the only app on my iPhone that did that, so I tend to believe it's a program related error. Can't recommend tihs.
Summary
I guess it's fine, if you never intend to upgrade to a newer version of software on your phone. A sync to an online or desktop version of this program would have prevented this problem. Look elsewhere.

"really really good exercise/calendar tracker"
Version: Lose It! 1.2
Pros
This is a very easy way to set weightloss goals, establish net calorie budget (it does it for you), track calories, track exercise and track weight loss. Since you take your iPhone with you everywhere (you do, don't you?) it works great.
Cons
I only wish that it would sync to a web application where you could sync data and enter information... but it's so easy as a stand-alone iPhone app that it's not much of a "con"
Summary
Really great. Good user interface. Most foods are easy to look up in their extensive database, and if you can't find something, it's easy to add your own info. I highly recommend this app. AND IT'S FREE (for now, anyway) !

"I think it is one of the greatest thing"
Version: Lose It! 1.2
Pros
It's a healthy idea!
Cons
It should be phones like the Lg VU by AT&T Like mine!
Summary
Just put it on everybody phones!
