[quote=Anonymous]I use Loseit which has many time saving features like adding meals, adding by scanning the bar code, and a massive database of many existing foods. Generally I find that 80% of what I eat comes from the same 200 or so items or so. It's quite easy to add a bowl of cereal at breakfast when you've had it two or three times that week or something. It's a little tricky when you go to a new place and order Pad Thai and they make it some way that you don't figure, but trying to (over) estimate the calories of that and you will generally work out ok. For stuff at home, a small kitchen scale is a wise investment. Honestly it really doesn't take more than one minute a day. I've been calorie counting now for 4 years (lost most of the weight in the first 9 months and just kind of keep at it for my own quirky quantitative reasons). [/quote]
