The program tracks nutritional content and I can run reports whenever I want. Plus it has a friend option that I use w/ my BFF so we can see if we're going over our calorie allotment and what we're doing for exercise. It also shows our weigh ins so we can see each other's progress.<br /><br /> I track my exercise there and I have a hand written journal on my exercise in my exercise room.Dr. Fat To Fithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14954538312143531261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2183510527500997747.post-34910569493859294772010-08-21T17:42:02.949-05:002010-08-21T17:42:02.949-05:00If I'm feeling rocky about my food--portion wi...If I'm feeling rocky about my food--portion wise or choice wise, I'll keep track on WW e-tools. I like it because it recognized my plan (CORE, simply filling) and records it with the appropriate # of WW points. Usually I don't record. I do keep a journal though. I record my weight, fat% and water% (as recorded on my Tanita scale) My BP always is higher at medical appointments and was once borderline high, so I record my BP and heart rate several days a week. I also record my daily exercise. I note my body measurements twice a month, and I record my weight on the 11th of each month on a separate page. Occasionally, 3 or 4 times a month I will write a paragraph or two of what I'm doing, how I'm feeling, what's happening in my life. I've done this for over two years now, and these are very interesting (to me anyway) to see how they correspond to my progress or lack thereof. Great job on the PR, Patrick.

I could never record my foods for more than a week. Granted I have skipped a few days and did none on vacation but I've used that website since the end of April a record for me. I concentrate on calories. I think it helps me really figure out how to use my calories. Like if I'm going out to dinner I make sure to have 500 to 700 cals available where at home for dinner I can do with about 400.ERICA https://www.blogger.com/profile/13631969628256018546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2183510527500997747.post-39609957804160335402010-08-21T13:39:47.894-05:002010-08-21T13:39:47.894-05:00Yes, I think keeping a daily food journel is key. ...Yes, I think keeping a daily food journel is key.

I have an app on my phone that allows me to track and is synced (sp?) with my online journal. I also keep a photographic record on my blog. I have read that people who keep some kind of a food diary are more successful in their attempts to lose and maintain their losses.Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13800684540367537529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2183510527500997747.post-69205035997780421582010-08-21T09:09:54.266-05:002010-08-21T09:09:54.266-05:00I made some of my food journals into PDFs that you...I made some of my food journals into PDFs that you can download.
