I have been using Lose It on my iPod Touch for a while and love it. However, I am now getting rid of my touch and so I need an app like it for the Storm.
Unless I am missing something there is nothing quite like it. Livestrong Calorie Counter is kind of similar. Can anyone make this or do they know of something very much like it?
Thanks for writing. Lose It! currently only supports the iPhone and iPod touch. We are constantly monitoring customer feedback to decide whether to support additional platforms, so we'll add this to the list of votes for a Blackberry version!

Ok, the very simple app I have is at http://www.kaediil.com/DietTracker.jad
It track food name, calories, fat and fiber content as well as points based on a well known formula from a company that helps Watch your Weight, but with whom I have no relation. It also allows you to send the recorded data to yourself which you can then copy into a spreadsheet.
The paid version tallys the daily point total, allows you to enter a personal daily point allowance and shows you the points remaining for the day and finally allows you to enter a food to save for rapid selection later.
It costs a whopping .99 and can be ordered through paypal from my site http://www.kaediil.com. I have to generate the codes by hand so please be patient.
I will admit it has not been horribly well tested yet, especially the paid portion but there are several users who have used the free version and there have been no issues.
I will look into adding the exercise portion maybe and keeping a running total of the calories.
I noticed your posting on Crackberry regarding a app that tracks points when dieting. I am interested in such a product. Does it contain any of the following:
Weight tracker
Exercise tracker
Food lists – restaurant foods and store bought?
If this app is useful I would be interested in paying for it but I am new to downloading there things. I tried to download the free version and it did not work. Any assistance would be appreciated.
I've tried to download the calorie counter by fat secret from the blackberry appworld web site, but the URL it sends to my phone when I click on the Get it Today Free button just sends me back to the blackberry site (URL:appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/content/1565). It doesn't down load any application to my blackberry. Do I need to have Blackberry app world downloaded to my phone in order to have the above link actually download the software to my phone?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I have a blackberry curve 8830.
Yes, you need to download it via App World on your phone, not via the web browser of your PC. However, I would encourage you to use the Livestrong Calorie Counter. Its $2.50 but worth way more. I've used it religiously for six months as part of my weight loss plan and have lost 60 pounds. The great thing about it is you can also use their online resource and sync the two.
