5.0 out of 5 stars Best Book By Far!, July 5, 2007

By	L. Abair - See all my reviews

I saw the book on the calorieking.com website and figured I'd give it a chance. I'd used spreadsheets in the past to keep track of calorie intakes but you don't often eat your meals at a computer so it was hard to remember to input everything I ate. This book is small so it goes everywhere with me, its easy to use and comes with instructions, helpful dieting tips, weekly overviews and a graph at the end to track your progress. I've been using it for just over 2 weeks now and have lost about 6lbs! Each day has its own page to track your calories eaten, calories burned during exercise, fat intake, glasses of water drank, and steps. There is also an optional carb/protein column if you are on a specific type of diet. I would definitely recommend this to anyone trying to loose weight. It keeps you accountable for what you put in your mouth and helps you manage how much you eat versus how much you work out.

OH and one last thing, the last 4 pages or so gives you the calories and fat found in many common foods, so if you don't have the nutrition information available for you you can look it up in your book. The nutrition information section also features a page for fast food including mc donalds, wendys, subway and pizza hut among others.

5.0 out of 5 stars wonderfully EASY journal, March 8, 2007

By	S. Sherron (WV) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've used many journals as I go through my weight loss journey. This one is by far the easiest to use and REMEMBER to use. It is concise and to the point. The size is also convenient. It fits in your purse or on your desk with no problem.
