Meal Journaling
MealLogger enables users to track their meals and to view them in daily and weekly views as well as in a social media-type stream.
In addition, they can track their workouts, weight, sleep and steps.
Steps can also be imported from other services like Fitbit and Runkeeper.
Personal Coaching

A health professional can provide direct feedback on a meal-by-meal basis.
Feedback is delivered within the app.
These interactions are private and not seen by anyone else.

MealLogger enables the creation of groups, where members can see each other’s meals and comment on them.
These groups can be private or public, depending on the nature of the group.
Group Coaching
Nutrition Competitions

Competitions allow a professional to set daily and weekly goals for participants.
Users are scored based on their progress.
All the rules and goals are visible within the app and scores are updated dynamically.

Scientific Evidence

Photographic food diaries change attitudes and behaviors more effectively than written diaries (Zepeda et al., 2008)
Programs relying on technology seem to be more effective when participants can also contact a "live person," either in person or over the Internet, as compared to standardized programs that feature no personal interface (Tate, Jackvony, & Wing, 2003).“
Keeping in touch with clients through telephone and computer contact can be very effective (Fabricatore & Wadden, 2005).“
Lifestyle- and weight-management groups tend to be more effective than individual consultations, regardless of whether individuals say they prefer group or individual counseling (Renjilian et al., 2001)."
