Anyone tracking their intake?

Are any of you using software or a website to track your eating, exercise, measurements, etc.? What are your favorite sites? I recently started using food Journal, Nutrition Facts at The Daily Plate and it's pretty cool. They have virtually everything already in the database. I also like FitDay - Free Weight Loss and Diet Journal.

How about you? Any other related sites you really like?

I've been using Fitday since August for my low-carb diet. I like it, but maybe I would like another one better. How do you like The Dailyplatet as opposed to Fitday? There's also Free Diet Plans at SparkPeople which I think is free as well. Anyone have any idea how that one is?

CallmeJim, I see you added a ticker and stats. I see you're down 25lbs from your highest, congrats! Are you on a pre-op diet?

I actually prefer daily plate at this pont. It's really easy to use and I have yet to try to add something that isn't already there. Lots of nice bells and whistles too.

Thanks for noticing my ticker. My "high" actually represents my all-time high weight from a few years ago. I have been struggling simply to avoid gaining at this point. With me, dieting, or simply being diligent to eat carefully depends on getting myself mentally prepared. Once I do that, I am usually pretty successful. Wish I could just "turn it on " whenever I want to. I'm really gearing towards 12/28 and the start of my pre-op diet. Life changes at that point and I am going to give it my best shot.
