And the Search continues....

And as I tossed out weight watchers, I found something called the Daily Burn. Seeking testimonials from people who had given up on weight watcher, I looked a little closer.

A free site, http://dailyburn.com, helps you track your diet and exercise goals and weight loss. A little different from the Weight Watchers points system, Daily Burn gives calorie goals with a break down of fat, protein and carbohydrate grams. (um, i live/work in a world that i may not always be able to count, measure and count again).

For a monthly or annual membership fee, one gets more features, which include training protocols, and consultations as well as other cool things available only to paying members.

Additionally, they have apps for that.... (more downloads for the iphone--- i have a BLACKBERRY), including a food scanner, which will tell you the break down of foods into the nutrient grams.

Clearly this website is i-phone friendly and would not be suited for someone like me, who is trying to limit her on-line time.

And so, my journey continues.

ON Friday, I will have my first appointment with a Registered Dietician. She told me upfront that she is not Nancy Clark (renowned sports nutritionist) but she has done some work with athletes and is willing to work with me. (I like that already).

I am looking forward to meeting her.

What are you doing to change your lifestyle during National Nutrition Month?
