A recent study showed that around 80 percent of Americans plan to make some major changes to the way they eat. The number of people who will actually do it? Probably much lower. We get it. Changing your diet is hard, and sticking with a nutrition plan is even harder. Temptation is everywhere, and it\u2019s all too easy to lose your motivation.<\/p>\n

Fear not, because these four apps are here to rescue you from the pit of dietary despair. From helping you shop like a nutrition pro to giving you the lowdown on how to order healthy foods from your favorite restaurants, there\u2019s an app for that. Actually, there are several \u2014 and we\u2019ve narrowed it down to the best and easiest to use.<\/p>\n

4 great apps for tracking your nutrition<\/h2>\n

1. HealthyOut<\/h3>\n

When you\u2019re on a strict nutrition plan, an invitation to lunch can be an anxiety-inducing experience. How do you avoid eating way too many calories in one sitting or make sure your entree is gluten-free without making a big scene?<\/p>\n

Download HealthyOut, and it will scan the menu at wherever you\u2019re eating to find selections that are consistent with your dietary restrictions. The only downside to HealthyOut is that it doesn\u2019t have data for every restaurant … yet.<\/p>\n

2. ShopWell<\/h3>\n

Shopping for healthy food is a lot easier with ShopWell. Tell ShopWell your goals, restrictions, allergies and other nutrition-related information, and the app will help you create customized shopping lists. It will also suggest new foods to try.<\/p>\n

There are a lot of similar apps out there, but ShopWell is a winner for its streamlined platform and ample features (including a UPC scanner that gives you instant details about a product). ShopWell can even help you navigate the grocery store to find what you\u2019re looking for.<\/p>\n

4. MyFitnessPal<\/h3>\n

Keeping a food journal can be a highly effective way to start making changes to your diet and lifestyle.

With a food database that\u2019s over 5 million deep, you should be able to get the nutritional lowdown on anything you\u2019re thinking about eating.
