This is a handy little book that will even fit in your purse to keep track daily. Keep it with you always because it also has a carb counter in the back. No excuses!

This is a slim, handy, journal that really helps make carb counting easy. Instead of recording what you eat on tiny scraps of paper you may lose easily or using complicated journals, this book simplifies the process.

The first page has space for you to record your goals including, current and desired weight, measurements, and current and desired exercise.

Then the book begins with Day 1 where you will find spaces to include the date, your weight and general comments. Each meal is listed in order of breakfast, lunch, dinner and then snacks.
Next to where you record what you ate there is a space to fill in the carbs.

At the end of each week there is a progress report where you can fill in your accomplishments and goals for the following week.

The journal covers 16 full weeks so its easy to look back and see the progress or mis-steps you have made. And the spiral bound journal lays flat, so it's easy to write in.

The back of the journal includes a list of common foods and their carb counts.

Though the journal is a bit large for smaller pocketbooks (8"tall by 4" wide), it will fit in a larger bag or a briefcase easily.

Another nice touch are the little hints and tips that appear on some of the pages, to help you make your low carbohydrate diet a success. Sample tip, " When you want a snack reach for tasty low-carb cheese. Wrap up some slices of your favorite kind and bring them along to the movies in place of popcorn."

The book is a super nice tool to help you track your progress!

The older version of this diary was terrific -- it was spiral bound so it would lay flat and keep open to the page you were on. No more! This version is not spiral bound and does not lay flat. I've used this diary for years, but I am going to throw out the two I ordered, and try to find something else. What were they thinking?

THIS BOOK REALLY HELPS WITH KEEPING UP WITH THE FOOD I EAT AND THE CARBS.
