DietPower, Inc. today launched a free Web-based tool that accurately calculates the number of calories needed to reach a goal weight on a target date.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE / PRURGENT
Danbury, CT (July 14, 2009)— The interactive calculator is featured in an article titled “Best Way to Lose Weight? Count Calories!” at http://www.dietpower.com/countcalories.php.
“Smart dieters have always known that the surest way to lose weight is to count calories,” explains DietPower founder and CEO Terry Dunkle. “That's because how much you eat affects your weight more than what you eat. And the most accurate way to measure your food intake is to count calories, because a food's calorie count tells exactly how much fat it can add to your body.”
The new online tool calculates a weight-loss calorie budget by asking your current height and weight, goal weight, target date, sex, and age. It also asks whether you’re a smoker, since tobacco use increases the number of calories needed. The tool is based on the latest scientific studies on metabolism and weight control.
The same technology is used in DietPower’s award-winning Eating Coach™ software, designed for any Windows PC user who wants to count calories, lose weight, and achieve a healthier nutrient balance. The software will also count calories burned in exercise, analyze recipes, deliver daily health news, and show which foods are best to eat right now. Among its accolades are top ratings from Shape, Runner’s World, CNET, the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, and the Journal of the American Dietetic Association.
Anyone can download a free trial of DietPower’s Eating Coach from www.dietpower.com.
DietPower, Inc., a private corporation in Connecticut, has produced and marketed science-based weight loss- and nutrition-coaching software, news, and features since 1988. Free, no-obligation trials of its programs are available at www.dietpower.com.
