4.0 out of 5 stars Good for the price, January 7, 2007

By	M.S. - Oakville, Ontario - See all my reviews

I've used this for two days now and I'm satisfied. It is cheaper than the competitors that I have seen but, judging by the reviews, it seems to offer the same functionality. It's simple to use and counts calories, fat, carbs; keeps a diary to keep track of everything day by day. The downside is it doesn't have a lot of the foods that you might expect. For those foods you input them once, name them, and then it stores them for future use. Over the course of a couple of weeks I would guess you would have most everything in there that you want. In the end, it gives you a pretty accurate picture of how many calories you are consuming. I have found it is very helpful in finding substitutes for the worst things I eat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Helped me loose 80 pounds!, May 16, 2008

By	Michael Caines (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

To me, this is the greatest thing since sliced bread (oops!) Seriously, I've had it for about 2 years now and carry it every day in my pocket when I'm in a weight loss mode. I've been able to keep off the extra weight for 2 years now, so I think it is a good "assistant".

It has lots of pre-programmed foods, and you can add your own (I think 100?). It also has a quick look feature so you press one button and see how many more calories you have for the day.

It's not expensive, and it reliable--highly recommended.

2.0 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for!, May 8, 2008

By	Tami (Houston, TX) - See all my reviews

This product is ok for the price but has several features missing that I would have liked. The one I got doesn't track fiber or sodium. But the major problem I have with it is that you can't connect it to a computer to print out a weekly diet sheet. Also you can only add 100 foods that are not listed and they only include 800 foods, so I find that I'm adding "raw egg" instead of "boiled egg" because it is not listed and I don't want to waste my 100 entries on something that has the exact same calories. Also the closure on it is a little bit hard to open. I will probably use it until I get something better and then sell it to someone in my diet group (or on ebay).
