use The Daily Plate everyday.

It’s a good tool. WAY cheaper than Weight Watchers’ site ($15/month) at free or $45/year if you’re feeling like paying for it, which I did.

I’ve been tracking food and exercise, which helps since even though I am trimming down and getting good comments, I am not shedding pounds. I can look at it and say I’ve been playing by the rules, at least.

Figuring out this net calories thing has me really puzzled though. The exchange of exercise for calories worked for me on Weight Watchers, but for some reason I’m really stymied right now. I know I’m feeling better and sleeping better, but I’m really ready to get into a smaller pair of jeans after almost 3 months of working on it. 3 years ago

I gave The Daily Plate a shot as part of my curve honing goal, and it’s truly helped me get on the ball with food and exercise. I’ve always found recording what I’m eating and doing is a huge, boring, pain in the ass, but this site makes it extremely easy and helps make sense of carbs vs fat vs protein etc.

I meant to add this goal earlier, and to make it a personal challenge for June. I treated it as such, I just didn’t have it on my list here. I joined 05/26/08 and have recorded every day since, losing my set amount of about a pound and a half a week. It gives me an extra push to make healthier choices and to get out and move more. Yay! 3 years ago
