Product Description
Be gone, personal trainer--welcome, Vivonic Fitness Planner! Whether you're looking to lose a couple of pounds for the holidays or you're training for the Iron Man competition, Vivonic Fitness Planner for Palm OS devices can assist you in reaching your personal fitness goals.

Installation is quick and easy. Initial setup calls for spending some time with the PC software, entering your current statistics and information regarding your goals. Vivonic Fitness Planner asks first for information regarding your height, weight, current fitness rate, current exercise program, and nutrition habits. Then it asks keys questions that are designed to determine your goals. Goals can range from muscle building to cardiac stamina to weight loss.

Once you've completed the initial setup series, you're ready to take your show on the road! By syncing your Palm OS device, all of this information is downloaded to your handheld. You can enter easily anything that you eat throughout the day and any calories that are spent on general living, and update your exercise regimen.

While the Vivonic Fitness Planner for Palm might seem a bit extreme for everyday use, it can be invaluable to anyone who has specific and predetermined fitness goals. It might be a bit impractical for someone who's looking to maintain a current body weight or size; but, for someone who wants to make life changes, but can't afford a personal trainer to assist, this tool is without a doubt the perfect choice. --Kendra Hayden

Summary: Vivonic love affair over
Comment: I loved this software; I liked the workout circuits; the food track is great. So...then I got a Palm E2 and kaput! Nothing. It just sits there. I would even spend money on an upgrade, but when I try to click through to Tech Support to find one...kaput! No Tech Support and no answers. It works on my desktop, which is even more frustrating. I think this is very well designed, too bad they stiffed us! MM

Summary: Glad to see this is no longer available!
Comment: I only give this product 1 star because the site does not provide for 0 stars. I purchased this software a few years ago and have been (mostly) faithfully choronically my diet since around 2003. I had always assumed that everything was fine with this software (you know what happens when you assume). I would go back a few weeks to double check something, etc., but I never went back more than a couple of months. Imagine my shock when I found out that none of my entries from more than a few months remained! I'm VERY upset about this and I hope this company has done more than stopped selling this product, I hope they're out of business. For those of us to which weight and our diet is a very important thing, this is a nightmare. I started a weight loss program (on which I have become sucessful), but the earlier entries are now gone forever. If I may, Vivonic sucks!

Summary: liked it, until I got to know it
Comment: I, like many other, loved this program when I first got it. Made food journaling easy (and I believe that is key to my weight loss of 60 lbs), it also helped me to learn about the nutritional content of foods(and led me to buy the book Food Bible, by Judith Wills, which I do recommend). But the company that put out the product has dropped the ball. I got a new Palm and it is not compatible. I emailed the tech support and they told me that they were working on updating the software. They said it would be ready by December 2003. Since then I have not heard from them at all. I hope they get their act together, or I hope someone better comes out with a better product. Until then, I suggest buying the Food Bible and investing in a notebook, pen, and calculator.

Summary: down fall of vivonic company
Comment: I purchase the vivonic software 3 years ago and love the product and would rate the software at a 5 star. the problem I have ran into is the suport of this software. When I purchased the software the teck suport was very helpfull when needed for the first year. After that they did away with their 1800 phone number and will very seldome if at all answer ther eMails. I also cant get a response back from them on this program working with a handheld PC. If you purchas this product and dont need teck suport you will love it but if there needed good luck.

Summary: New Palm? No Vivonic
Comment: Like some of the other customers here, I've been using Vivonic (happily) for about two years but when I installed it on my new C...nothing. "Tech Support" via the Vivonic site produces no response. It's a great program if you're using the Palm OS 4.0 or less, but not compatible with the newer models.
