Description:This applet allows you to track your weekly weight loss and set a target weight as well as other goals. Before getting started you should weigh yourself and measure your waist and hips (see comments for instructions). Initially your BMR and BMI will be calculated after you input your data and activity level. You can even choose between two BMR formulas. Then you choose your target weight and your goal for waist size as well writing down other goals. You choose how much weight you want to lose per week and your total energy expenditure will be calculated. Your energy expenditure can even be calculated based on extra activities. Finally you can write a weekly journal about your progress as well as other thoughts. This applet is comprised of three databases and one form. It is made to work with forms so it can be difficult to use without them. I included a PDF file to clarify some things on how to use the forms. The main database is Wt loss calories and the forms file.

02/25/2015 Previous gifts [Miscellaneous]
This is a add-on database for Gift Planner. Basically it allows you to check previous gifts when using Gift Planner. You will see the corresponding name, the occasion, what you bought, the price and a note. The best way to add new record is to use the DBpopup in the name field and choose the gift(s) you bought (this would ideally occur after you've bought your gifts, so you would choose the records in the bought view of the Gift Planner view).

03/16/2015 My running log [Sports]
A comprehensive running log for the serious runner. You can also use it if you're trying to lose weight. You should install the applet "Weight loss goals with a calorie calculator" and the accompanying applets to get the most out of the applet. I made a workaround so you can input seconds when registering duration. The applet calculates your pace, speed, calories, intensity, target heart rate and you can input a lot of information like: distance, running type, ranking (during race), BPM, shoes, weather.
