Good Idea from My Niece: Tap & Track

I got this note from my niece the other day and she said I could share it:

Hello Auntie Susan, I just wanted to say yay for your 40 lbs by Christmas goal! I am working losing weight too:):):) I was reading your blog and noticed you were thinking about tracking your calories. When I lost almost 60 pounds a couple years ago that is how I did it. That's what I'm doing again actually:) Anyway, I just wanted to tell you that the iPhone has an awesome app called Tap and Track. You enter your weight and height and weight loss goals and it tells you how many calories you can eat each day. Then you enter the food you eat and it tracks the calories. It has a giant database with a lot of food's nutrition info stored so you don't have to enter the nutrition info for all the food you eat. You can also record your weights and exercise you've done. It's pretty awesome if you do decide to track your calories. Good luck!

Love ya!

Andrea

Thank you, Andrea!  Big hug!

AND..... my Zumba instructor last night after class ended said, "OK, you all know you just burned 1,000 calories doing Zumba with me, right?"  WOW, ONE THOUSAND CALORIES, are you kidding me?  Since I wasn't able to keep up with this particular instructor, I'd have to say I burned a bit less. But still it was a sweat fest!
