Ok… so last week was a disaster as far as my weight goal is concerned but in other news – I did get an iphone.  To be totally honest, my husband got one and after messing around with it for a couple of days, I was in love.  I had had a blackberry for the past 3 years and although I loved my blackberry pearl, the curve was a piece.  I had renewed my contract with AT&T in September and that is when I got the curve.  After a month, it broke and I had to get a new one (thankfully I had the warranty) and THEN in December it broke again… same place and everything.  The charging port was all messed up and so I couldn’t charge my phone which was frustrating.  Anyways, I was on my third curve and it was working BUT when the iphone crossed my path, I knew I had to figure out a way to get it, and I did.  I called AT&T, rose a little hell and they credited my account, told me how to change over to the iphone and voila!  I have one.  All I have to do is recieve my rebate from my curve (which I still have not gotten…) and sell it to break even.  Awesome.

I wanted to talk about some iphone apps that I found that are helpful as far as weight management goes.  There is a free app called “Lose it!” and it is pretty awesome.  You can set a goal (so mine is 125lbs) and it tells you how many calories you can have to reach your goal and how long it will take you.  Then, you can track all of your foods and activities with the application and it will keep track of your progress.  Pretty awesome.  I am going to test it out this week to see how I can do.  It says I can have 1200 calories a day to reach my goal by June so that’s what I am planning on doing.  I figure that if I focus on veggies and fruit that 1200 calories will not be a huge deal.  Plus, if I work out, I can eat more… if I decide too.  So all in all – it’s a little bit like weight watchers bundled up into a free iphone app.  I’ll keep you updated on how it goes – this week will be loads better than last week, I swear on my eyes.
