It takes tremendous motivation and conscientiousness to get a shredded physique. There’s no way you can just hammer away on the treadmill and expect to shred pounds overnight. In order to achieve consistency with your diet and exercise regimen, it’s important to keep track of your calories intake and the fat-burning activities that you’ve done throughout the day. But don’t worry, it doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll have to measure your blood sugar level or take notes of the labels of everything you eat. There are many apps that help us track weekly progress and stay motivated. The number shown on your scale doesn’t reflect the change in your body composition or measure how much fats you’ve burned. It’s high time you ditched the scale and installed below weight loss apps!
