You might also want to use some of the various free tracker sites that will appear in the ads to the left of this and every page.  Some of them are very good.  But realize this:  It does not matter how fancy your tracking is.  A simple piece of paper can be carried around all day and have more power than something on the web that you need to be near a computer to update.  You just must be sure to track your intake and activity every day, and throughout the day will work the best.  It keeps you THINKING about what you do during the day that influences your weight.

YES -- THIS IS A MAJOR DIET SECRET!!  AND SIMPLE!!

”The most important thing I did in losing 213 pounds
is write down every single bite.”
(Validated Independent Diet Survey Response)

What we have found through research and analysis is that probably THE MOST IMPORTANT COMPONENT TO A SUCCESSFUL WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAM IS TO TRACK EVERY BITE YOU EAT. How you do it, or what tool you use to do it, is not as important as actually doing it, EVERY DAY. And, if you update your information THROUGHOUT THE DAY, it will be even more powerful than just doing it once a day.

Our research also found that TRACKING helped people succeed on many DIFFERENT KINDS OF DIETS, as long as they regularly tracked what they eat on the diet.

Why does this work?  Well, if you try it diligently for a few days you will realize that continuously documenting these weight loss factors will have a dramatic effect on your “diet mentality”.  This action makes you very aware of progress, reminds you of what is influencing your numbers, and conditions you daily to EAT AND DO THE RIGHT THINGS!!

Tracking is an educational as well as emotional process. After being on the diet a couple days you won’t blow your hard work by cheating because you know you will have to write it down and will see the effects on your weight.

The Diet Tracking Section of this site has the trackers and tools you need to succesfully track your program.
