iPhone App Mania!!

So yesterday, my 16GB iPhone 3Gs came into my local AT&T store for pickup. You bet as soon as I got the email it was in, I ran over there (well not literally but I drove fast). I absolutely LOVE this thing!!! I downloaded a great App called "Lose It!". It reminds me so much of WW online tools that you have to PAY for. Best part is, this app is FREE!! It gives me a calorie budget for the day and I enter in the foods I eat. So far it's search option is great and pulls up all kinds of foods, including brand names. There is also a search option for restaurant foods! I can also add in exercise and it subtracts that from my calories (using an estimated number of calories burned). Being that it's on my phone, I doubt I'll have trouble keeping up with it. The WW online tools are an inconvenience because if I've eaten out or at a friends house, I have to wait until I come home and try to remember every measurement of everything I've eaten. I'm really psyched about this, and I think it will be a great tool to help in my weight loss journey.

BTW, I slept until 1pm today.  Yesterday really zonked me out!  Told you I was a napper!! ;)  What can I say?  I love my sleep.  But maybe that should be a new goal...to wake up earlier and earlier.  ugh.  Too many changes at once!! haha.  Maybe later once I get this running thing down...and who knows?  That might remedy itself with all of the energy I'm expecting running to give me.  (or shall I say, jogging?).
