I was excited to see this new app released by Intermountain Healthcare....even though I don't have an iPhone...but wanted to share in case anyone is interested.
It's called LiVe...and it is intended for a childhood fitness program, although kids, teens, and adults could use the info.
The app is modeled on 8 healthy habits. I think we could all benefit from these. They are:
1. Always eat breakfast--and make it healthy.
2. Eat more fruits and vegetables.
3. Limit--or eliminate--sweetened drinks.
4. Limit screen time: TV, video games, Internet.
5. Increase physical activity.
6. Eat meals together as a family. (love this one, an oldy, but goody)
7. Be positive about food.
8. Don't criticize about weight.
The LiVe app:
1. Provides fun suggestions for following the 8 healthy habits.
2. Makes it easier to set goals and track progress. It also uses a roulette function to help generate ideas to increase your physical activity. Shake the phone, and a list of activities spins and lands on a suggested activity. (FUN)
3. Allows you to invite friends to be apart of LiVe!
You can downlad the LiVe app on this website: www.intermountainlive.org
