ABSTRACT:
This study aims to (1) determine the effect of applying the FatSecret application on increasing physical activity (2) determine the effect of applying the FatSecret application on weight loss. This research method is an experimental method (quazi experiment) using a one group pre-test and post-test design, ie: experiments carried out on one group only without a comparison group that is given treatment. The sample in this study amounted to 24 people selected using purposive sampling. The sampling criteria in this study are (1) aged 18-65 years, (2) able-bodied, (3) BMI 25-49.9m kg/m2 (4) interested in losing weight, (5) have access to smart phones. Data collection instruments used the GPAQ questionnaire, digital scales, measuring tape and FatSecret application. The normality test used the Kolmogorov-sminorf test. Data analysis techniques using SPSS.25 to determine the effect of FatSecret application on increasing physical activity and weight loss using t-test. The results showed that (1) from the t test analysis, the t value was obtained (-12.231) > t table (2.068), with these results it was concluded that there was an effect of applying the FatSecret application on weight loss. (2) the results of the t test analysis on physical activity obtained the value of t count (2.643) > t table (2.068), from these results it can be concluded that there is an effect of applying the FatSecret application on increasing physical activity.
