« Back to Overview

MyPersonalDiet gives you the tools to reach you weight goal by providing simple means of tracking your food and workouts, monitor your health and get clear assessments of your efforts and results. MyPersonalDiet will not burn calories for you, but it will eliminate any guesswork and help you make the right decisions to reach your objectives. It is also equipped with features to monitor specific nutrients, which is essential for people with food restrictions.


Establish a complete diet plan
  • Enter your profile and find out what your normal weight range exactly is.
  • Choose your target weight and MyPersonalDiet will help you determine how long a healthy diet will take. Successful weight losses are achieved by making small, but long-lasting, changes.
  • Select your diet plan (such as low carb) or create your own. MyPersonalDiet will later notify you whenever you select a food that does not match your diet plan (such as choosing food too rich in carbs while being on a low-carb diet).
  • Set nutrients daily limits (minimum and/or maximum) on specific nutrients (such as carbs or fat) you need to watch for in order reach your daily goals and stay within your diet plan. You will be able to see in a chart how much you have consumed through your meals and how much you can (or not) consume further.
  • Select your daily energy requirements for MyPersonalDiet to calculate the recommend percent daily values (%DV). You will be able to see whether you are missing, meeting or exceeding the %DV of the nutrients you're tracking.

Comprehensive meal entry
  • Enter meals using 7500+ food items based on the USDA food database, along macro- and micro-nutrients (carbs, proteins, total fat, sodium, cholesterol, sugar, etc.) A powerful search lets you find foods in a split-second. MyPersonalDiet also keeps track of your favorite foods, making it super fast to build meals with the food you consume the most.
  • For each food, see how much energy comes from carbs, proteins and fat. MyPersonalDiet will notify you whenever you select a food that does not match your diet plan (such as choosing food too rich in carbs while being on a low-carb diet).
  • You can track water and enter meals using food group servings, which is best when consuming prepared foods.
  • Add your own food with detailed nutritional information, either by weight (g/mg) or by percent Daily Value (%DV), making it a snap to enter custom foods if you have the nutritional facts (found on almost all food items)
  • See a daily summary of each food you consume, with a list of nutrients you choose to track.

Track your health and workouts
  • Track essential vital signs: weight, body fat, blood pressure and blood work markers (calcium, insulin, iron, hematocrit and trygliceride to name a few).
  • Also record your workouts, using one of the 30+ activities or by creating your own, along the duration, exertion and heart rate, and MyPersonalDiet calculates how many calories (or kJ) you use and body fat you burnt.


Quick and easy monitoring and tracking
  • The Results screen summarizes your accomplishments since the beginning of your diet regarding:
    • Your current weight vs. how much you should weigh at the moment.
    • Your eating habits (whether you consume too much or not enough food).
    • Your exercising habits (whether you exercise enough or not).
    • What to do to reach your weight goal in terms of eating and exercising.
  • The day view shows a summary of calories (or kJ) or any nutrients you wish to track (such as carbs, sugar, etc). Quickly find out how much of them you consumed and eliminate any guesswork about how much you can still consume (or not) for the remaining of the day while staying within your limits.
  • The day view also presents a diet summary that displays your weight trend from the start of your diet independently of the too-often discouraging but normal and usual daily weight fluctuations. The weight trend is what matters, not the daily fluctuations.
  • The month view shows an immediate snapshot of your efforts overall: you can immediately see for any day if your weight is on track with your goal or not, helping you make a prompt assessment of your situation and take the right decisions.
  • The chart view lets you visualize information for you to make the right decisions:
    • Calories consumption and expenditure.
    • Vital signs: body weight, body fat, blood pressure and blood markers (e.g. cholesterol).
    • Water and nutrients consumption.
    • Workout duration and heart rate.

Essential for people with food restrictions
  • Enter daily limits (minimum or maximum) about nutrients that have a direct impact on your health, such as glucose, cholesterol, fiber, sugar, sodium, etc. Not only will this help to stay within your daily limits, but it is indispensable for anyone whose health highly depends on limiting the consumption of specific nutrients (e.g. diabetics, people with high cholesterol, people with high blood pressure, etc.) This is also useful for people that need to consume a minimum of specific nutrients, such as calcium.
  • As you enter meals, MyPersonalDiet can show you how much of each nutrient you have consumed for the day, and whether you can consume more, have reached or exceeded the maximum (and by how much). This eliminates the guesswork about what you can or not eat for the rest of the day.
  • Track blood work analysis and markers (such as cholesterol, trygliceride, etc). You can also instantly chart any blood marker over any period of time  to see any important trends.

A friendly Palm OS application
  • MyPersonalDiet features an intuitive, easy-to-use Palm OS look-and-feel user interface meticulously crafted.
  • It takes advantage of your device's high resolution (320x320) capabilities if available (including 480x320 and 320x480 on Tungsten T3 & T5), but also runs with ease on standard resolution (160x160). If you are using a Tungsten T3, be sure to download and install add-on files to support expanded screen modes.
  • It uses your device's settings for the date and time formats, as well as default measurement units for convenience.

Readily extensible
  • Synchronize your diet and food data with VidaOne Diet and Fitness for Windows (sold separately) and customize the food database with ease!
  • Integrated with MySportTraining (sold separately) to make it easier than ever to track your health, diet and fitness.

Very good interface Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great program, it's comprehensive and easy to use. I tried this along with Diet and Exercise Assistant by Keyoe. I thought this interface was a little better and it pulls data from the MySport Training program. I think the food and serving descriptions are better here too. One drawback is you can't edit the food database whereas you can with Keyoe's product. (Either one lets you add but they both have some strange and misplaced items and serving size errors in their food data). Though another reason I like VidaOne is they have an excellent Windows version where you CAN edit the food database (I haven't actually tried it yet but they advertise that the edited version syncs). Hard to think of a way to improve it. Very solid, I lose weight whenever I track my diet with it.
Excellent Program!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I'm almost afraid to admit it but ... this software actually made losing weight alot of fun. It is reasonable and healthy and feels like a friendly game of competition with myself!
good but quirky Rated 4 out of 5 stars

A very good program but I agree food is a little difficult to add and then find again later, ,but not so much as to not use the software. Also the food choices and some serving sizes are not appropriate actual servings. It seems info was just important. I think the quirks are small compared to the great interface and overall usability. The first version is always funfilled with personalty quirks in any software so go ahead and get this one.
