Calorie Count, just launched a brand new phone app, and I thought I’d let you know about it.  This app is a free, downloadable diet tool that allows users to track and manage weight, search and log nutritional data, popular exercises and healthy recipes all while on-the-go...a time when critical dieting decisions are often made.  Essentially, the Calorie Count App serves as an all-in-one diet coach, nutritionist and workout trainer!
