Default What is your opinion of fitday?

I'm torn on using it or not. I never used it when I lost previously. I honestly didn't even count every carb I guess-timated. I have tried using fitday on and off the last year but it gets so compulsive. I worry when I see the cals etc and get in diet mode.
Any succesful "losers" here who don't use it?

My three main tools are DANDR, Fitday and Fittogether. Seeing the calories, sometimes I get freaked out but then I just remember what the book says. I saw where there was a site better than Fitday but now I cant find the post.

I only use it to figure carb counts for recipes I adapt or make up.

Otherwise, I kept track of my carbs using a carb counter and a notebook.

Default Re: What is your opinion of fitday?

I'm not a successful loser, per se, but I have lost 20lbs. I don't use fitday on a daily basis. It drives me insane. It's tedious and time consuming. I don't have time. I tend to eat the same veggies over and over and over again, so I know how many carbs I'm taking in.
I use fitday to look up stuff I'm not sure about, like cabbage or jicama.
I think most people here recommend using it. Once I move onto OWL I think I am going to use fitday because I'll have to keep track more carefully.

Default Re: What is your opinion of fitday?

I used fitday daily until I felt like i had a good handle on the carbs and amounts of food i was losing. Now about once a week or so I will plug in a few days just to make sure i am on track. But I meainly eat the same food so I dont ever really really unless i want to try something new and then I plug it in fitday first to play with my menu.

That why I'm so scared to move onto OWL! What if I lose track, but I have to move on at some point. Thanks for the advice, Disco.

Default Re: What is your opinion of fitday?

I only use it when I have a stall to make sure I'm getting the right % and 99 times out of 100 I am. It's really time consuming putting all the info into it and anything that takes too long is a huge turn off for me.
