My friend Kelsey Spoon introduced me to a GREAT website: CALORIE COUNT. This site is amazing! You can put in all your information (age, weight, height etc.) and then it will tell you how many calories you need to maintain your weight and how many calories you need to lose weight. It has nearly every food you can imagine listed including fast food restaurants. It also grades these foods. For instance, broccoli received an A and homemade chocolate chip cookies, a D+. In addition, it gives you the foods strong and weak points.
You can also choose your activity level or individualized activites that you completed that day in order to determine how many calories you have burned (and therefore how many more you get to eat). This site is amazing and it is free! You just have to create a username and password on the initial screen but there are no strings attached. This website gives you a great appreciation for what you are putting into your body and how many calories you need to lose weight or how many you need to keep your weight consistent.
Very educational and inspiring. Check it out!
