Apps That Will Help You Come Up With a New Year's Resolution and Keep It


We all have our own so-called New Year's Resolutions -- it can be as simple as avoid being late in school or work to something big such as save for a new car or house. But all those short or long term goals comes to end even before the first month of the year ends. So here's a compilation of great apps that you can download and use to help you, along with a full commitment, keep your promise with your New Year's Resolutions.
So without any further ado, here we go.


Lose It!


Lose It! is a free app that will help you set a daily calorie budget, track your food and exercise, and stay motivated to make smarter choices and achieve your goals. According to Kristin Kirkpatrick, a registered dietitian with the Cleveland Clinic, most people underestimate how much they eat on a daily basis. A food log, which tracks everything you eat throughout the day, helps keep you accountable. If losing weight is one of your New Year's Resolution, Lose It! is the right app for you.


This app is available for Android and iOS users.


Quit It Lite


Sometimes, the littlest things can make the greatest impacts. Quit It Lite is a small, motivational program that encourages and supports current smokers to quit and former smokers to remain, well, still former smokers. This app helps you count all those cigarettes you resisted and rewards you with a tally of all the money you saved, as well as the tar you avoided since you started the quitting program. It also gives you insights on the benefits of smoking and allows you to share your achievements with your friends via Facebook, Twitter, and email. So if you're planning to go with a new, healthy living this year, don't miss this app.

This is another great app that lets you see all of your balances and transactions together, either on the web or on your mobile phone. It automatically pulls all your financial information and view it in one place, providing a real-time report of your bank, investments, loans, and credit card balances. The Mint app also lets you set exact budgets for each type of purchase, alerting you when you exceed the set amount. One cool feature of the app is the Goals, where you can set a goal for anything you are planning to save for -- be it a new car, vacation, or housing project. Enter the amount you want to save then set a due date. Mint will indicate how much you need to save each month and notifies you if you're falling behind your savings.
