Resources

Tools

  • Food Tracker App: I use the Lose it App but if I could do it again I would go with My Fitness Pal

  • Food Scale – I just bought one after 3 weeks it makes things more accurate to track I bought mine at Costco because it was on sale for $15.00

  • Activity Tracker: like Fitbit I don’t wear jewelry not even my wedding ring so wearing a fitbit is off the table for me so my husband bought me a tracker I could clip to my shoe I lost it after 2 weeks . I don’t always carry my phone in my pocket so tracker on the phone isn’t accurate still looking for a work around.

  • Keto Strips

  • Protein Power : I just bought ISOPURE® ZERO/LOW CARB
