Let me share with you my new obsession:
TheDailyPlate.com
This website is fantastic!
I usually avoid counting calories, but I've got some LBS I can't shake so I went to this site to see just how many calories I was taking in on a daily basis.
To begin- this site has the calorie and nutritional information for just about every food out there. So far there hasn't been a single food item that I have not been able to find on there already.
The coolest thing about this site though- is that it gives you the break down of everything you eat. Here is my nutritional information from yesterday:
It will highlight something if you go over your daily recommended allowance (like carbs).
It will also show this as a pie (mmmm... pie) chart
You can also track your water:
Another cool feature is the meal creator. I added a green monster on my list of meals, that way every time I have a green monster I do not have to list all the ingredients- I can just press my "green monster" meal.
And if you wanted to see how many calories you need to eat to lose a pound (or two) or gain a pound (or two) It will calculate it for you.
Awesome, awesome site.
Never used daily plate, but I will have to let clients know about it! I used something similar years ago, and found it to be very useful!
ReplyDeleteWow that's sound like it's extremely useful. I am definitely going to go check it out!
