I read the calorie count on all boxes plus for things like fruit there are websites that give the calorie count for other food.. Most restaraunts have a nutrition pamphlet as well.. Hope that helps a bit...

That is such a good thing! There are some awesome free calorie logs online, too. This one is very easy to use:

Free Calorie Counter, Diet & Exercise Journal | MyFitnessPal.com

All you do is type the food and the program counts the calories for you. You can log exercise and it will set up a basic weight loss plan for you. You can see exactly what nutrients you need to add very easily.

Bodybugg is also a good tracking tool. I got mine free with a gym membership at 24hr fitness. Their site lets you log calories and the bugg measures your exact calorie expenditure for the day. You wear it on your arm. Their site is not free but it's reasonably priced.
