TiP reader loses 8 lbs using an iPhone app

There’s nothing better than a little word of mouth, like finding the best restaurants, mechanics or doctors. Likewise, there’s nothing iPhone/iPod Touch users love more than getting and sharing info on great apps. (Personally, I’m always showing off the neat stuff on my phone — whether people care to see it or not!)

With 100,000+ apps in the store and a mountain of accessories out there, it could take years for us to cover it all. We won’t stop trying, but to make our site even more useful, we’ve also made it easy and fun for users to connect and share info with each other via our messageboard.

Here’s the latest, from TiP community member “Grace,” who has just offered her own short, unofficial app review. Why is this one so special? Because when it comes to diet apps, finding one that’s simple and actually works is definitely a unique treat.

“I started using ‘Lose It!’ at the end of December and since then I’ve lost 8 lbs. And all it does is help me log…” (If you’re interested in her full comments, click this link to read the rest.)

In all honesty, I’m probably going to give this app a try, based on her terrific experience with it. So a big “Thank You” for this one, “Grace” — both professionally and personally! If it works as well for me as it did for her, you can bet you’ll be seeing a full-fledged official review here on the site.

Lose It is a free app available in the App Store. (Link launches iTunes) For more info on this developer, hit up the website.
