First up is 8700, this app was created by the NSW government and derives it's name from the approximate number of kilojoules an adult should consume daily. It has a chart to work out how many kJs you would need to eat to stay at your weight, to gain weight or, to lose weight but it's most useful feature is that it tells you how many kJs are in certain items of food. Unfortunately it only includes foods from places that are required by NSW law to disclose their kilojoule ratings so many basic things such as fruit and vegetables are missed out. However it forms a good basis point to let you know what you should avoid and how much you can eat in total.
Next is Ab Workout, this is part of a series of workout apps and they can be bought all together as one pack. I find the ab routine absolutely killer even the five minute one. If you did this everyday you would definitely have great abs. These apps are a good idea for the keen exerciser who will probably want to buy the whole pack. Personally I think the pack should have been a little more discounted as it isn't much cheaper than buying them separately. The free versions are more than enough for the average person anyway.
Finally there is Target Weight. This is my favourite out of all the apps mentioned here. Again there is a free and a paid version. The free version is just for tracking your weight whereas the paid version will track your exercise, syncs with some medical equipment and other things for the health obsessed. The free version is really all most people will need as it gives you a clear goal, advice on what speed to approach your weight loss at and charts it all out clearly.
