When we were young, we were taught about the importance of a balanced diet. What we weren’t told was how easy it is to slip up and gorge on all the things that we shouldn’t be feasting upon. But fear not, whether your aim is to lose weight, gain weight, or simply eat right – these food and diet apps will make that journey way easier.
