This is not a new website, so you may have heard of it or even use it. I was looking up caloric amounts today because I am starting to count them & came across this site. Its pretty fabulous. What I like is that it tells you how many calories you burn from even the most mundane activities--like eating or watching tv! lol... It links up with livestrong.com, which is Lance Armstrongs website with lots of health info.

Hope you enjoy!

I've not heard of this one, but I have heard of sparkpeople.com which is also free.  It's good to know since many will set a New Year's resolution to lose weight!  And free is always nice!

I'd not heard of spark.com, so I signed up to check it out. From what I've seen, I like thedailyplate.com better.

Spark puts meal plans on there that are absolutely ridiculous and not budget friendly. They are also not easy to change.

I will give them both some more time to see which I like better.

I have mine set to not show the meal plan and I just insert what I choose to eat and it does the calculation for me.  I think there's a button near the bottom of the page or something where you can change that.

Yeah I did that, then I saw that you can do a grocery list. So, I thought that was cool. Turns out--they want you to eat *their* food. I figured it would be like the tool on allrecipes.com (among other sites) where you can do it all on your own.

No biggie. I think the main point it to do the calorie tracker. I've got that going, so I'm good to go!

I use the dailyplate and like it alot!
