According to study, 39 % of people
 rely heavily on dieting and weight
loss phone and tablet
 application in order to make
informed
decisions about their food choices.

“I think it is an absolutely fantastic sign that
 so many people are using their mobile phones to help aid them with weight loss, and
 seeing effective results from it. It must be hard to try and stick to a diet or low calorie
 menu when on the go or out at a restaurant, so being able to track food intake in
situations like this on a mobile device must be a
 godsend to some,” said Adam Cable, director of mobilephonechecker.co.uk.
Some of the reasons for using dieting apps included:
- Easier to track calories and food intake at the push of a button
- Can check calorie content of items before deciding to eat them
- Helpful for planning healthy and nutritious meals in advance
- Cheaper and easier alternative to diet books and magazines
