Personal trainer Dave Quevedo and the American Council on Exercise's Jessica Matthews, MS, weigh in on their favorite apps.

Maintaining an accurate food diary is one of the most difficult parts of trying to lose weight, but this online toolbox can help you track everything: from the number of calories in a 6-inch turkey sandwich with chipotle sauce, to how many calories you burned in 60 minutes of a Brazilian jiu-jitsu class.
There are also calculators to determine basal metabolic rate, body mass index and just how much blood your heart is pumping every day. Bloggers will find personalized weight-loss tickers and weight loss "badges," and the Fitbit activity tracker ($99.95) does almost everything except the sport itself, wirelessly.
