#34 Good Health Online

Today I have been having a look at online dieting sites - Fitday and Nutridiary. The basic idea behind both sites is that you can keep a track of what foods you eat and what activity you do, and the site will then calculate the amount of calories you have eaten and burned off. Obviously the more information you enter the better the feedback you get will be.

I tried entering what I had eaten for a day and then activity for the day. At times I found it a bit slow, possibly because I was having to look for all the different items I wanted to enter. In the end thought it was interesting to go and look at the overview and see how calories consumed matched up with calories burned, and what the average percentages of fat and protein etc were like.
