| Editorial Reviews: | | |  | If you take healthy steps, how far will you go? My Weight Loss Coach for Nintendo DS is a game for every adult, male and female, who considers reaching and maintaining their target weight a challenge. A program that fits your own objectives and respects your daily life constraints, My Weight Loss Coach supports you and tracks your progress and achievements by improving your energy balance. Developed in conjunction with a nutritionist, it helps you take control of your weight efficiently and feel better. Via an exclusive pedometer (included free with the game), you will be able to measure your real physical activity level and balance it, following the advice of a fitness coach. Your motivation will increase with coaching sessions, daily challenges, mini-games and quizzes - play for only 10 to 15 minutes per day and you will feel the difference!

| Cute and fun, but limited | |
| | This game is cute - the animated coach and background music are kind of fun. The pedometer included was a great idea, but the clip broke off within a week of normal wear. Also, the selection of foods to choose from is very limited - serving sizes cannot be changed, so if you only ate 1/2, there is no way to change it. You cannot add your own foods and there are no ethnic choices. Also, it does not take into account which foods you ate, only calorie totals. If you eat nothing but chocolate bars but meet calorie requirements, you get rewarded - no balance of food groups at all.
Another downside - if you turn off your DS, your food entries will be deleted so you have to write it all down (pointless if you are trying to track using the game) or remember everything at the end of the day - I always forget snacks etc.
This game would probably be good for a person unfamiliar with dieting/nutrition who wants a place to start, and a quick method of tracking. I found it too simple for nutrition, but for motivation and fun, it is not bad. The milestones to work towards are one of the better features
