PC Program for Tracking Calories, Etc.

[SuzyQ]

Is anyone using a PC program to track daily calories, activity level, etc? I've used Life Form, which lets you put in all your meals for the day. It already has some basic foods in it (including prepared foods), and you can add your own. It tracks everything on the nutrition label, and lets you make graphs and charts.

Does anyone use anything different? I'd be surprised if there wasn't one specifically geared towards the BB industry (Life Form is not).

Sounds interesting. If anyone has a program I'd be interested in know what it's called.

I have wrote an excell spread sheet and a food data base. all you do is copy and paste to the spread sheet and everythingis added up and totaled for you. I use this when I train people. It makes creating a diet very easy.
Id be glad to share it...
