Having clothes that you love is great. Discovering after one too many trips to your local waffle house that those clothes no longer fit? Well, that sucks. As part of your efforts to get you back into your favorite threads, we suggest you give Lose It! a try. It’s our Chrome Web App of the Week and using it couldn’t be easier.
After installing Lose It! to your Chrome web browser, you’ll be asked to set up an account, and answer a number of questions including how much you currently weigh, your height, age, how much you’d weight you’d like to lose and how fast you’d like to lose. Lose It! uses this information to do the math on the total number of calories you should be consuming in a day in order to reach your weight loss goal within the target timeframe you’ve set for yourself. By inputting the foods you eat at each meal, you’ll be able to see what calories you’re consuming, making it easier to watch what you eat
Lose it! also lets users add exercise to the online fitness tracking equation, making it it a great tool for people looking to shed a few pounds through dieting, working out, or both.
Be sure to check back every Monday for another edition of Maximum PC’s Chrome Web App of the Week.

The "Chrome Web App" phrase is really starting to annoy me.
This is not a CHROME specific app.
Losit is just a WEBSITE.
A REGULAR WEBSITE THAT YOU CAN USE WITH ANY WEB BROWSER.

I've used Lose It! on and off for a couple years now (iPhone and now in Chrome) with fairly good success (20 pounds shed in four months or so recently). I think some of the recent updates (barscan, whatnot) make it even more useful. Being free? Awesome. I think exercise functions should be a bit more customizable and user-friendly (e.g., inputting distance run instead of time and pace run). Overall, I really like this app and recommend it to friends and family.
