[quote=Anonymous]This is the main thrust of what the app does per the article: "Using a searchable database, I could input pizza or pineapple or cookies, and that food’s corresponding colored light would appear directly beside its name. Another screen showed how to measure portion sizes by hand — a fistful of rice or pasta, a cupped hand of chips — while an interactive game called “Red Raisins” encourages kids to identify “red” or “green” foods by sight. I was granted four servings of “red” foods a day, and when I told the app I’d binged on cookies and peanut-butter sandwiches, it told me that I should try some green foods, and adjusted the number of “reds” I was allowed to eat for the rest of the week." So learning about portion sizes and generally how much to eat of different foods? I'm ok with that. They should program it so you can't input underweight stats and ask to lose more weight, though.
