Losing weight can be a difficult thing if you aren’t able to properly monitor all of the food that you’re intaking. It’s simple mathematics — if you eat more than you need, you’re going to gain weight. If you eat what you need, you’re going to maintain your weight. If you eat less than you need, you’re going to lose weight. It really is easy, but it can be difficult to keep track of your calories on your own. That is why you need a calorie counter app to go with your LG V40 ThinQ. It’ll help you to easily keep track of what you eat throughout the day.
What calorie counter app for LG V40 ThinQ will help you out the most, though? Follow along below, and we’ll show you five of our favorites. Here are our top picks.
MyFitnessPal
MyFitnessPal is first up on our list — this one has probably been around the longest time, and might be the app that has improved the most over the years. Anyone can download MyFitnessPal for free, make a free account, and start tracking calories almost immediately. Once you log into MyFitnessPal, you can add your height measurements, weight, age, and then MyFitnessPal will automatically show you how many calories you need to lose a certain amount of weight. Stay under those calories for the day, and you’ll lose pounds easily!
You can easily log foods into your MyFitnessPal diary to, as there are sections and categories for Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner. Add a food, and you can scan the UPC code of a product, or you can search MyFitnessPal’s massive food database.
One of the more unique features of MyFitnessPal is the “Finish Diary” button at the bottom of your MyFitnessPal diary. Tap the button, and it’ll show you what weight you’ll be at within five weeks if you keep up with the current calories that you’re eating.

Lose It!
Lose It! is next up on our list, and it operates almost identically to MyFitnessPal. It does have a couple of its own unique features; however, the design is a little on the boring side. Just like MyFitnessPal, you enter your height, weight, and age details, and then Lose It! automatically calculates how many calories you need to eat to lose weight. You can add food products to your diary, whether by barcode scanner or by searching Lose It’s massive food database. Lose It! will even let you meal plan within the app itself, and you can log specific meals with a simple snap of your photo.

MyPlate
MyPlate comes in as next up on our list. It’s similar in nature to MyFitnessPal and Lose It!, but it was made by Livestrong as an easy and clean way to track calories. They have a massive selection of foods that you can choose from in their database. And like other calorie counters, there’s a built-in barcode scanner to scan products into the app.
What we really like about MyPlate is just how organized it is — it’s very easy to navigate through the app, add foods, complete your diary, and more. You can even view nutritional information really easily with MyPlate — easily keep track of fats, sodiums, and more.

MyNetDiary
MyNetDiary is an excellent calorie counter, but it isn’t for the average person. The average person can use it, but MyNetDiary was primarily created with those that are struggling with diabetes and the like. It can actually help people with diabetes start to lose weight and take control of their nutrition by showing them the big picture. Follow the instructions that MyNetDiary puts forth, and you might just be able to make diabetes not a problem in your life!

The Track Calorie Counter by Nutritionix is next up on our list. This was created in partnership with a team of nutritionists so that consumers can get the most accurate information possible. It really helps the average user take control of their diet and start losing weight once and for all. Track Calorie Counter is actually great for those people that are on the go — you can add a day’s worth of calories to your diary in under 60 seconds.

Verdict
There are a lot of options out there for calorie counters for the Google Play Store. Just search “calorie counter” and hundreds of options will appear online. That doesn’t mean every option is a good option — you want something that’s not only going to be able to help you track your calories, but give you the tools to lose weight as well. That’s why we like MyFitnessPal — it’s not just a tool for tracking calories, but it’s a suite for losing weight as well.
