I am looking for a website where i can log in my food intake and it will help calculate Protein, calories, fat. Does anyone know if such a thing exist?

Lapband.com

It is easy to use - also has a weight counter, an appointment counter and is designed specifically for the lap band patient - and of course - it is free!

Cast another vote for Fitday. I've been using it for a long time, and really like it.

Tried fitday and was ah ok. Looked at LapBand.com and that was good and it uses fitday as its food tracker. Is there some secret to getting the food search to not be so vague. Yogurt has like a million ones and if you put in the name "Dannon" nothing. No sure I like this. I was able to eat grits but to find the ones I ate: grits, instant, butter flavor, cooked with water; ah nope the closest one is not even close to the nutritional values on the box which of course I do not carry around with me when I get to log on at work. Is it best to just custom enter foods. I was hoping to be able to look up foods w/o having a chart there. When i tried that for grilled chicken breast oh the choices and to just do chicken breast was like 7 Protein is that right. I thought chicken/meat was a good source of protein. I am so confused.

Livestrong--the daily plate is great www.thedailyplate.com they have very specific foods and brandnames and restaurants--even off-brand names of food example Kroger yogurt

I have used FitDay and DailyBurn in the past and I love them both. However my heart currently belongs to Daily Plate via Livestrong. I have yet to stump their database! Other than that, they're all kinda the same - but I particularly like that with Daily Plate, below the food input dialogue box, a couple of articles auto-generate based on what you're eating and I have found some very good information this way! Sometimes it's recipes for Snacks, sometimes it's concerns over too much Protein, sometimes it's exercise related, but it's always educational.

I have yet to use the exercise tracking portion of Livestrong though; I'm only six days post-op so I've got a few weeks before I can really get into it again. Not sure how it compares to DailyBurn, which I found lacking.

Daily Plate and DailyBurn both have iPhone apps and possibly Blackberry/Android as well.

I'm using lapband.com but liked fitday and sparkspeople. I just dont want to switch and I like being able to log in my fill appointments and keep a graph of my weight. I use calorieking.com to enter in my recipes and get the calorie counts.
