Exercise??
Is there a way to add a specific exercise to this. I do not see gazelle or ab lounge/sit ups
Would either be considered calistenics?
Any help would be greatly appreciated:)
Extra day on reports?????
Why does my report show an extra day--like tomorrow ? It's hard to see an average when you haven't eaten anything yet! Is this your version of Groundhog Day the movie ?
Hanging in there...
Sometimes its hard to keep on plan but I've been mostly good and loosing weight.
I was drinking a lot of diet root beer and then realized that it has quite a high sodium content. So I slowed down on that a bit and it seems to help. I find drinking water helps a lot.
Good luck to everyone.
Good to be back
Started again this week and I have lost 3 Lb's!! This is such a great site it helps me keep track of calories and exercise. I hope I can keep this going 3 Lb's and I feel better already.
Thanks Rick
Sorry to hear about your credit card scam. Someone got our credit card number and had a field day purchasing textbook all over the US. We had to cancel the card...what an inconvience...grrrr!
Glad that this site is up and running...my husband and I DEPEND on it:)
Have safe travel...and thanks again for this wonderful site!
Thank you!
We really missed this site. Thank you very much for running it for people like us.
Yay!
Glad the site is up and running.
We're Back
Hi all,
So, while I was traveling, someone used my credit card for a scam, which resulted in my credit card company canceling my card. At this exact time, my domain registration came due, but since my credit card was invalidated, it couldn't be automatically paid, so my rights to the "calorielookup.com" address expired. So the registrar had a temporary site up until I was able to figure out what the problem was and pay them.
All should be fine now. Sorry for the weirdness.
Cheers, Rick
Glad you're back?
Hey I tried to get online here last night and this morning and ended up at some strange site wtih the same name and url but only ads? Glad you're back.
Is there anyway to get in touch other than here through the site? Like an email or something in case something like that were to happen again?
WOW
I can't believe it I weighed on last night and I have lost 14 pounds. I am so happy. I have changed the way I eat since we have a corporate fast at church. I participated in Daniels fast. It consists of fruit, nuts, and vegtables. This was the start to me realizing what I was putting in my body and I love the difference I see. Thank you for this website.
I LOVE THIS SITE
I have been on the Prism Weight Loss program since the 1st of the year. However, I am not doing it with a group but rather my sister and parents and I are doing the program on our own. My sister and I are doing really well, but have sometimes had a difficult time finding good calorie information. This site is the answer to our prayers! Just awesome! The lookup is very easy and clear and the information is great. I love the daily trackers and the wonderful user friendliness of the whole site. I also love that there is a mobile site that I can use on my smartphone. Thanks to everyone who has contributed and helped this site be so great. I cannot thank you eonugh! Keep up the good work everyone and God bless you all!
It's a Journey
I am 44 and making a long term lifestyle change to improve my health. I know it is a journey. Making effective and needed changes yet ones I can sustain going forward vs. a quick nearterm weight loss goal.
First week I did great. S
First week I did great. Second week I did ok and now third week (and an upcoming trip) not so great. I plan to try try again. This is just like quitting smoking. Keep trying till ya get it right.
response to skykat
If you look on the food tab towards the top right there is a button for your foods. It will have the foods you eat the most from historical information.
Glad you are safe. Praise God!
Encouragement
Thanks to ALL for encouraging words here. I was doing great since 1/1, lost 4 lbs, then got hit head on - survived! Just reinforced that I need to change my life NOW, tomorrow is not guaranteed. Comfort food started to take over after the accident, but I am back on it this week and not going to fail. Good luck everyone.
New here
New here, actually my first day. 22 months after the birth of my fourth child and weight increased instead of decreased. Now I'm n full combact against this body. Got a gazelle and combining it with calorie lookup to have healthy out take in life.

16 days and still on plan
If you have a few "moments" forgive yourself and stay at it.
I have stayed exactly to my plan and not had one bite of anything not allowed or accounted for.
But one of my tendencies it to creep up the quantity of certain foods such as cheese and meat. That's what I have the most problem with.
So good luck to all of you and focus on the end game - it takes time but it will get easier.
Fatty gets fit!
This is what Isay to myself to get motivated!I poke fun at myself, without humor this endeavor Iam on would be unbearable!
to Beth Hall
Yes you can, and I will do it with you. I am 43 and want to be healthier too. Have a long way to go, but this week using this site, have already lost 2 lbs and kept myself in check. Woohoo!!
Control
Today, at 47, I am vowing to get healthy. I am dragging my husband through it because I love him so much and want to grow old with him. Portion control. Do not put more into my mouth than I burn off. I started jan 1 and have lost 5.6 pounds so far. I can do this with the help of God.
Tag?
How does the "tag" work? Thx
New user
Do I have to search and add my foods every day, or can I make an ongoing list to "check" from. Thx
Ugh.....
I ate WAY too much between Thanksgiving and New Year so here I am again!
New Year... new Me
I'm not going to yo yo anymore. I'm going to lose all the weight and I'm going to make better choices too.
I have a long road ahead of me, but I'm going to do thing differently this time... no goal of 50lbs... instead I'm going to start with a small goal for today of drinking 4 cups of water out of my Tervis. ONE down three to go.
"Must make better choices of food intake"
Lost 30 lbs. two years ago. Got to get back to better decision making process. I have the spirit of GOD, now I must use it.
Day ONE!
Lost 50 pounds last year, recently gained back 20, I don't want it all back so I start again today. One day at a time!
Holiday fun is over, time to get back on the smart
Dropped 35 lbs from May to Oct, stayed level for a bit then added 8 lbs over the holidays. Now back to losing 30 more pounds. No sweat.
Forgive me heart, arteries and bones, but I have s
Day one, again! I'm still not has heavy now as I was at this time last year but I'm,....gulp, FAT.
I fell off the wagon but now I'm back on. Last years loss was a good one so I am looking forward to being in my zone again.
Good luck to all of you!
Tomorrow is day one.
Just got all signed up starting tomorrow!
Just started and love it
I made it through my first week and lost 4.5 lbs. I have been struggling with different diet programs where I was watching what I was eating and working out and it wasn't working. Well now it is is and I'm loving it.
Neat website
I have recently found this website and I cant believe more people aren't using it. Very easy, great motivation and FREE! I can't wait to use it and watch the results.
Day three
This is fun! Haven't weighed in yet, but I can tell you all that I feel better and am enjoying cooking again, very little prepared foods here!
Not going to be a statistic
I read recently that 60% of people gain 5-8 pounds during the holiday season. I'm proud to say that using this site I am not in that majority. The site works and even when I cannot get to inputting my food, etc I can still gauge how much I'm eating and doing to stay on track. Keep on keepin' on everyone!
It's time
It's time for me to get in shape, and stay that way, great site, looking forward to tracking my success. I'll keep you posted
Back Again
Hi Y'all,
Through a crazy summer and the start of the school year my weight is up again. Setting a goal to drop 16 pounds in the next two months- and not put it on again over the holidays!!
Thanks Rick for making a great tool that always works when I use it. I do wish I could integrate the awareness and discipline that I get from using this site into my behavior without needing the site eventually.
For now I'm thankful this tool is here though.

I'm so happy I lost five
I'm so happy I lost five pounds this week. This is great. Thanks
WONDERFUL SITE
I like this site. This is really helping me with my calorie intake. I was writing this down in a journal and I found myself not keeping track as well. I also gave a friend of mine the site. Thanks for creating this. Tee
@Rick
Hello Rick: Please reset ddhawkins. Thanks you very much.
Thanks queenypants...
Yup....been watching that activity too...I'm now down 14 lbs.....and have found even writing my food in a book is helpful...although not nearly as helpful as this site is. There is just something different about 'guessing' the calories vs someone adding them up for you...:D and then looking back at the history to determine where a person went 'off'. I'd like to be able access a complete history though...it would help me motivate myself to keep coming back and writing things here because then I can see ALL of my misdemeanors...and accomplishments at once! Keep chugging away everyone! :D I've only got 30 or 35 more to go and until next August to do it! :D
Rick--Auf Wiedersehen
sichere Fahrt (have a safe journey)!
Traveling again
Hi all,
I'll be "en voyage" for the next two weeks starting on Monday. Off to Munich to give a talk about Ubuntu to a conference, then to Orlando for 1.5 weeks to plan the next release of Ubuntu.
As usual, I expect the site to go down exactly when I can't access it to get it up again :) If there's problems, please be patient and I'll get it started again asap.
BTW, we just release a new version of Ubutu. You can a tour in web browser if you want ...
@hawkins - I can reset your password
Tell me the user name and I can reset your password for you :)
Back to get under 200 again.
but I wish I could access my 5 gold heart account.
Just got back
Hi everyone, just got back from a month in Myrtle Beach. I didn't bring my bike and it was just to expensive to rent one. I walked almost everyday on the beach for about one and a half hours, but not the same workout as riding. Went riding today and it was like starting over. I will have to work up to where I was before. Getting cool for bikes in New England. Only gained 3 lbs in the month I was away. Well keep up the good work everyone.

Good Luck to Superteacher
Superteacher - I just read your post and wanted to wish you the best of luck. I've just been on this site for a bit over a month but it's been very enlightening and helpful. Sorry about your loss (I'm a widow too) but hang in there for your kids, they need you more than ever! :)
viewing/creating report
is there a way to view any/all reports for weeks other than the current week of the year?
lawn mowing?
Does anyone know how hard it would be to have a lawn mowing entry or entries under exercise?
@bobbiblack10R3 re: interesting....
First, congrats on weight loss :) I myself have been impressed with how just keeping track and being conscious of what I eat is helping me lose weight. (this site is awesome!) That being said, I can say that I've also fallen victim to your predicament. Your post doesn't say anything about being active but being one who yo-yos with weight loss I've found that sometimes the body needs a jolt to get pass that hump of no change. A good day or two of activity to prove to your body (and yourself) you mean business! Keep tracking your calories AND your activity! Every little bit counts. I hope this helps :) good luck!
Interesting....
I tracked my progress for a bit more than a month...and was dedicated in making sure I wrote everything down. Lost 10 lbs or so...(my goal was 1 lb a week for 30 weeks)...Then I thought I was doing so well that I could just monitor my food intake and could continue on. This past month, even 'thinking' I've been very careful, I haven't lost any more weight...I have only maintained...guess I'm back to writing every mouthful down! It truly does keep a person more aware and accountable for what goes in my mouth!
Day one
I arrived home last night after a 3 day stay in the hospital for "stroke-like" symptoms. What a wake-up call this has been! I have not been kind to my body:( I need to lose about 100 pounds AND quit smoking. I lost my husband in recently to a very aggresive cancer, and my kids do not need to lose another parent. So, here I go.... Wish me luck!
