The food database covered my meals and showed me some errors I made in judgment of my calories. Life Form uses a detailed database to analyze your intake. Next, Life Form determines your metabolic rate and exercise levels to predict weight control. The manual explains that this is not as simple as one would think due to unknown variables. In addition, the medical chemistry is recorded and plotted into graphs, so this is not a one day and we are through deal.
Records have to be entered daily.
My first experiences with entering data were frustrated by an inability to correct a mistake. After going back and reading the book, I understood why the mistake could not be corrected by simple editing since the operation created 47 database files. Life Form creates 18 basic files and up to 46 data files. I don t like to read manuals, so I tried to use the program without reading the manual. However, when I stumbled upon the error correction thing, a reading of the 240-page users guide revealed why Life Form is important to use.
