[quote=Anonymous]I am turning 50 in a year and my goal is to be fit. That means losing 50 pounds and getting in shape.

I have the knowledge about diet and exercise and was very active and fit until my mid thirties so I know what to do. I am not sure though how being 50 with hypothyroidism and perimenopause is going to come into play.

Are there any good easy apps for weight loss?

I have used myfitnesspal but it is too time consuming to enter the food and I never keep it up more than a week or so. I need something that is very quick and easy but where I am reminded every day to check in about my exercise and diet. I really just need an app that asks me to give a thumbs up or thumbs down to my diet / activity level that day. I found having a step counting watch made a world of difference in how many steps I took as I could look at it often and would set daily goals and see my progress.

I have access to a gym and a pool for free in my building. I have time to cook but I tend to make the same 4-5 meals for dinner after work as I am tired and hungry when I get home as I rarely take a lunch. Diet wise my issues are snacking, skipping meals, a lack of protein, treating myself with sugar / sweet tooth, and portion size.

I feel like this should be completely doable. But given this weight has been on so long (my weight has been stable for 12 years) I am  somewhat doubtful I can lose it. [/quote]
