FoodScanner uses the iPhone built-in camera to take pictures of the barcode on food that you eat to help you keep track of what you are eating.

Below is a slide show of some screenshots that I did today while eating lunch. Once I got back to the office I started scanning my co-workers food too. I finally did find one item that did not come up based on the barcode but was in their database after searching for it.

After you input all the food items you have eaten (water bottles work too!) you can load see how many calories and other food facts from their website or the DailyBurn iPhone app.

DailyBurn’s FoodScanner is by far the best app I’ve used to date to collect the data that I need to calculate my daily intake. FoodScanner is like a magic wand for calorie counters, no extra effort is required.

Daily Burn – FoodScanner – $2.99 in the iPhone App Store

For the 3 plus years I’ve worked here each month they throw a small birthday party celebrating everyone’s birthday for that month. Since I started GeekFit with Steve I’ve walked out of the room after being social with my co-workers and before they begin cutting and handing out the cake. It’s to the point now that if they have the cake precut they just skip me when they start handing it out.

    I bet most people that have vendors attempting to get you to buy their product will try to buy you lunch. I hear this tactic is VERY popular in the health industry (ironically)! Donuts, cookies and cakes are quite popular in these instances.

    What things happen in your workplace that you have to resist the urge to indulge? What tactics do you use to resist?
