awesome site for those who like a food diary/with detail
« on: May 08, 2011, 02:52:17 PM »
fatsecret.com is a great tool... It allows you too create a daily food diary.. It calculates the calories, fat grams, protein grams and CARBS!!!  It allows you to search by brand name and it shows it to you so you can add it or change it.. It also allows you to enter your daily activities such as work, exercise, sleep, etc..... You are able to monitor yourself and see what is going on with your intake and help you determine what you may change... I found it to be pretty cool and actually helpful...

I know that not everyone is into keeping such detail, but if you are, this is very very cool...

That is a cool site Alex!  Thanks for sharing  :) 

I found a site called Everyday Health.  It sounds like they are very similar.  I found this one while looking for a site to keep track of my blood sugar readings.  Love to keep my logs.... it helps so much and keeps me honest.  ;)  I'll have to check the other out to see if I like it better

I love FatSecret. Every since I've started using it, I've been much more aware of what I've been eating. Not to mention NOT eating when I should be. It's a great site!

yeah, its really nice.. I love how it really can be detail.. I also like you can keep a journal and if you had a bad day, well you can write about it and how a better understanding of maybe what happened that day...

Rick's been on FatSecret since starting FTS and has always told me I should do it too. I never listened, but that's nothing new. When I stalled in March, I figured I better do something and he suggested that again as a way to track what I was eating. As soon as I did, I lost another 7 pounds. Go figure.

I still blame cheese.  ;D ;D ;D
