I happened across this site while searching for the nutritional information for the butter spread I used on the broccoli.

A similar idea to FitDay, http://www.thedailyplate.com/ is a free online calorie counter, food journal. What I dig about it is the wealth of nutritional information on the site. Super handy.

Keeping a diary of what you eat every day works. We are pretty unconscious creatures and even when we think we are aware of what we are doing, a lot slips our notice. Therein lies the value and importance of keeping a food journal.

I have used the PC version of FitDay for a couple years now. It’s handy and easy to use. They offer a free version online with a few less features, but still excellent. I’ve started an online version for this site – so you can click through anytime to see what foods I am eating each day and so on. Here’s the link. I’ve also placed a link to the journal on the right for future reference.
