Keeping Track

Wouldn't it be great if there were a place to go to log in all the food that I eat during the day? 

And wouldn't it be a wonderful if that same place would let me track my weight?

And is it too much to ask to have that magical place give me some feedback about what I need to eat more of or less of? 

And...dare I dream...could it also maybe tell me how I'm doing and how much weight I'll lose if I keep eating a certain way???

Would you believe such a magical place exists???  My darling friend Tricia introduced me to www.myfitnesspal.com last week...and I think I'm in love.

It tells me how many calories, carbs, fats, and proteins I should have each day.  It updates how much of everything I'm allowed to have when I exercise.  The tool that logs in my food has actually heard of restaurants like Panera, Breuggers, and East of Chicago Pizza, so I don't have to guess the nutritional value of my meals. 

I finally feel like I'm holding myself accountable without struggling to eat a certain number of points each day (no offense Weight Watchers).  I'm making conscious choices to have more protein, fewer carbs, and love the feeling of plugging in my exercise for the day!

I said it before...and I'll say it again...I think I'm in love!!!

*Maybe this will give me the edge that I need to finally kick the junk in my trunk to the curb!

**Thank you, Tricia!!!!
