The best website I have found for weight management

I am in the process of getting "back" into shape and losing weight. Not an easy task for a soon to be 40 year old who has been out of competitive shape for years. Still, as I look at my wife and kids, I know I have to do something to prolong whatever natural life I have left. Leaving things to fate has never been my way.

I started to count calories. At first I was just curious to see just how much I actually ate, and relate that to how much I should be eating. Everyone should do this, particularly if you want to lose weight and get in shape. I started Googling for calorie counters that would help me put a number to the food in my list. Then I stumble on an absolute awesome website!

Go to http://www.calorie-count.com. Create a profile and use it daily. This website not only has the nutritional information for more foods than I have ever heard of, but also can help you determine how many calories you are burning. Pretty need stuff. You can put a host of activities in your activity log and relate that to how many calories you are consurming. This website also gives you information on some diets, and allows you to analyze a recipe for nutrional value. Plus, there are forums that will allow you to get information or converse with others about diet, excercise, or motivation.

This is the absolute best website for those of us dieting or getting in shape. It is a "must" tool if I have ever seen one. Take a look!

Oh, BTW, I am not affiliated in any way with this website. It is just that good.
