I am looking for suggestions on what to buy to help me become more successful during my weight loss journey. I know MFP is critical but I'm looking for other suggestions...
Thanks a bunch!

    I love fitness gadgets but the most useful "tool" that I bought for weight loss was my digital food scale. It was $20 at Target and is really the only thing you absolutely need (in my opinion).

    I find that the Endomondo app is SUPER helpful for walking, jogging etc. It will track your path (using GPS) your time, calories burned, how far you walked/ran/jogged ETC :)

    I definitely agree with getting a food scale. I also love my Polar FT4 heart rate monitor..it gives me a good idea on calories burned during a workout and I LOVE seeing myself improve!!

    A fitbit. I've had the fitbit one since November and haven't taken it off since. It's about $99 plus tax. Worth every cent to me....:)

    A food scale and fabric measuring tape.


    And MFP, of course.
