What fitness/calorie app do you use (if any)?
I used to use LoseIt! but did not want to pay to upgrade to the full version without knowing how much help it would be. I’m just looking to upkeep my fitness and lose some weight in the process. It helps me to track everything and having everything on my phone makes it even easier. Also, the LoseIt! app does not take the iWatch Fitness Ring app data, so all of my workouts aren’t added in. Ideally, I’d love to have one place that can interact with my watch and phone data, where I can input my intake on a predicted schedule. If that makes any sense.
Does anybody here use anything like that? If so, what are your suggestions and thoughts? (PS, as I am new to lemmy, please let me know if this should be posted elsewhere).

Besides that I haven’t seen the scientific studies that back it up but there is also an answer from the cronometer forums where they said it’s based on Merrill and Watts work summarized in the book Energy Value of Foods: Basis and Derivation

Generally I still just follow the macros though. They also have a Thermic Effect of Food option but I choose to ignore that option as well.
