Review – DailyBurn FoodScanner for iPhone
Sep 24th
Both Steve and I are fans of DailyBurn and today they released a new iPhone application called FoodScanner. 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.

This episode Steve is still in an extended stay up near Seattle and Jason is holding it down in southern California as usual. The discussion kind of bounces around (hey ma, look, no script!) but we cover the following.
- Day 3 of the healthy road warrior routine. Steve talks about techniques that he has found useful in dealing with traditional hotels and extended stay hotels. He also explains the differences of the two as well as the pros and cons of each for someone wanting to lose weight.
- Jason carries Jessalyn in the pool. She’s still learning how to swim.
- 90 degree weather can die now, please.
- Water bottles that kill you? We talk about SIGG, Naglene, leaching chemical water bottles, Bisphenol-A and BPA. We also suggest some alternatives to these water bottles including steel bottles.
