I lost 25 pounds and LOVE it! by C. Rudolf (Virginia Beach, VA) 5 Stars
October 02, 2009
I have 3 kids and gained weight with each one. I got up to 132 and couldn't budge. I had always heard "calories in, calories out" or "keep a food diary", and tried these strategies over and over. THEN I got the Robi and I lost 2 pounds the first week and 1 pound each week after, and now maintain 107 lbs. for 9 months!! It is easy to do and I carried it everywhere. I now have "learned" what I should be eating! It even kept track of fiber which is very important to your diet! THANK YOU!!!

I bought this for my dad who is Type I Diabetic. It's very helpful for keeping track of carbs. The size is great, it can be slipped into a pocket or purse. Instead of carrying around little books about carbs, my dad can take this with him and it includes everything he needs to know to help manage his blood sugar.

Great little device for the price by Lazarus Long (Arizona, USA) 4 Stars

I got this little gizmo about 3 months ago and it has come in very very handy. It has a fairly comprehensive database of simple foods already present and allows me more than enough space to add what it didn't have (I have only had to add about 15 items to it). Plus you can always manually enter the info you need on the go. It is light weight and fits comfortably in my pants pocket so it is easy to take with me to work. It's diary system helps you keep track of your daily intake of Calories, Carbs, Fat, Protein, and Fiber. It will also allow you to view your average intake of all of the above over whatever length of time you like (i.e. last week/month). It is not perfect, it does not have as large a database as some of the other models (no restaurants) and it's interface takes a little getting used to (though not much). All in all, though, this is more than worth your while if you are looking for something you can carry around with you to help you count calories while saving a little money.

Exactly what i was looking for!!! by B. Wells 5 Stars
July 31, 2008
This is the product i've been searching for a long time now. It does exactly what i want it to do, count and keep up with my calories. I have wanted to start keeping a food journal for a while, but never found the time to pull out a list of foods and look them up and write them in a notepad. This product makes it super simple and easy. I have had it 3 days and already see a difference it my calorie intake. The seller was also great in getting it to me very quickly. I would buy this product for any of my friends wanting to keep up with calories and lose weight.

Helped me loose 80 pounds! by Michael Caines (Chicago, IL USA) 5 Stars

To me, this is the greatest thing since sliced bread (oops!) Seriously, I've had it for about 2 years now and carry it every day in my pocket when I'm in a weight loss mode. I've been able to keep off the extra weight for 2 years now, so I think it is a good "assistant". It has lots of pre-programmed foods, and you can add your own (I think 100?). It also has a quick look feature so you press one button and see how many more calories you have for the day. It's not expensive, and it reliable--highly recommended.
