1. A fresh new look with one-click navigation
- Virtually every screen in the program received a facelift and has a more modern feel.
- The new buttons along the left give you one-click access to just about every essential area of the program. They are neatly organized and collapsible.
2. Nice additions to the Weight Loss Calendar
- The calendar now shows icons when you've recorded foods (apple), exercises (runner), body measurements (tape measure), or notes (paper).
- Click on the little apple icon to go right to your food diary for that day. Exercises, measurements, and notes work the same way.
- Hold your mouse over these little icons to see a daily summary.
- There is now a "Goal Date" in the stats at the top, giving you a way to define a date for when you want to reach your weight loss goal.
3. Charts and more for the food diary
- We added a Daily Calorie Breakdown pie chart to the food diary.
- We added a Daily Fat Breakdown pie chart too. This chart can be changed to show you: Daily Carbohydrate Breakdown, a Net Calories bar chart, or a Weight Loss progress chart.
- The food diary now shows your daily nutrient targets, so you can see and understand how the math works.
4. A better food selection window
- We decided to remove the nutrient display to make room for new features. This makes it easier to focus on finding foods.
- A new list on the right shows you what you've just added to your food diary as you go.
- Now you can right-click on any food to copy it to My Foods. There's also a right-click option to view a food's Nutrition.
- We've added individual search boxes to the Brand and Generic categories, to make your searches even faster. If you still do most of your searches using the Search function at the top right, you should give the Brands and Generic categories a shot instead -- it's so much better.
5. Big-time improvements to serving sizes
- We've added multiple serving size options to virtually all of the 40,000 foods in the database.
- When you select a food you can select from a range of serving sizes, including ounces and grams.
- This change has the side-benefit of making the list of foods more concise and easier to read.
- Do you weigh your foods in ounces? If so, you'll enjoy knowing that the program no longer converts them back to grams.
- You can now enter fluid ounces for most of the drinks and liquid foods.
- Want to enter a fraction like 2/3? Just type "2/3". It's that easy.
6. Colorful new progress charts
- We really took charting to a whole new level with Weight-By-Date Pro 3.0. The new charts are beautiful and easy to understand.
- We've added several new charts. Here is the complete list:
- Weight Progress by Day (line chart)
- Weight Change by Week (vertical bar chart)
- Calorie Breakdown as Percentages (pie chart)
- Calorie Breakdown as Totals (bar chart)
- Nutrient Totals by Day (line chart)
- Fat Break breakdown (pie chart)
- Carbohydrate breakdown (pie cart)
- Calories Eaten vs Calories Burned (dual-bar chart)
- Calories Burned by Day (line chart)
- Calories Burned by Activity (bar chart)
- Time Spent by Activity (bar chart)
- Body Measurements by Day and Zone (line chart)
- Total Inches Lost (pie chart)
- Total Inches Gained (pie chart)
- Some charts have additional options, such as the ability to show a line for moving average or a line for your goal.
- All charts are now controlled by a single date range and there are several preset date ranges, such as Today, Last 7 Days, This Month, This Year, and many more.
7. A new and improved Meal Planner
- Weight-By-Date Pro 3.0 gives you a true meal planner that eclipses the planner in previous versions.
- You can create three types of meal plans:
- Reusable Meals or Groups of Foods
- Scheduled Plan by Date
- Scheduled Plan by Day of Week (Monday, Tuesday, etc)
- The meal planner is still a great way to experiment with your menus and see the nutrient totals, just as before.
8. A new and improved Exercise Planner
- Like the new meal planner, Weight-By-Date Pro 3.0 gives you a better way to plan your exercise routines and workouts.
- You can create three types of exercise plans:
- Reusable Workout or Set of Exercises
- Scheduled Plan by Date
- Scheduled Plan by Day of Week (Monday, Tuesday, etc)
9. Charts added to the Exercise Log
- The exercise log has some new charts to match the look of the food diary.
- The first chart shows your calories burned for the last week.
- The second chart compares your calories eaten to your calories burned for the last week.
10. More exercises and better categories
- We improved the way exercises are organized, with several logical categories for common types of activities.
- Now you can search the exercise list to find exercises easier.
- We've added 70 new exercises across various categories, including: strength training exercises (including crunches, sit-ups, push-ups, etc), more bicycling and treadmill speeds, Pilates, and several Wii® games.
- Daily Living exercises that don't burn many calories have been de-emphasized. They were really meant for reference and we have moved them to their own reference category.
11. A brand new suite of health tools
- We've redesigned the basic tools that came with previous versions and added several more:
- Body Fat Calculator (new and improved)
- Blood Pressure Assessment
- BMI Calculator (this was previously a progress chart)
- Calorie Needs and BMR Calculator (new and improved)
- Cholesterol Assessment
- Goal Planner (new and improved)
- Ideal Weight Calculator
- Recommended Daily Intake Lookup
- Target Heart Rate Calculator
- You may might not realize it, but the health tools are actually online. This means we can update them and add more features without needing to update the program.
12. Integration with the web
- Version 3.0 takes advantage of the web without requiring you to be online to use the program.
- Weight-By-Date automatically checks for and downloads program updates, so you'll always have the latest fixes and feature additions.
- The program also downloads food and exercise updates automatically, when available. We plan to make this a regular service now that we have a mechanism for updating them.
- We're just getting started -- we're working on a way to backup and synchronize your data over the web as well.
Coming Soon for Weight-By-Date Pro 3.0
- We'll be sprinkling lots of FREE updates into Weight-By-Date Pro 3.0 over the next few months, including:
- "Before and After" pictures
- Meal/Exercise times for food and exercise entries (time of day)
- Better organization for your My Foods list
- 10,000 new foods and updates to the existing food database
- A Food label preview for each food
- Special enhancements, so that the program remembers things like chart settings, servings and quantities that you commonly use for each food, defaults for the health tools, etc.
- The ability to track more nutrients (beyond the 10-nutrient limit)
- Exercise goals, measurements goals, and more
- A Shopping list (as part of the Reporting Add-on, which is sold separately -- see below)
- "Total Health" Add-on: This will be sold as an "add-on" for Weight-By-Date Pro. It's for people with diabetes and other health concerns. You'll be able to track blood glucose, insulin, medications, blood pressure, cholesterol, and more.
- Reporting Add-on: Another add-on to be sold separately, this will gives you the ability to print various reports and analyze your progress even further.
- Blackberry, iPhone, Droid, and Palm Pre Versions: Yes! Soon there will be a version of Weight-By-Date that runs on any Smartphone (or wireless device) with internet access and a web browser. Best of all, this superior mobile solution will synchronize with Weight-By-Date Pro over the web!
You will love the new Weight-By-Date experience. If you have any questions or concerns, we'll be happy to help. Just use our online helpdesk or give us a call at 1-888-967-9970 (M-F 9AM-9PM EST).
