I only use fitday in the morning and afternoon. Once I can see how
things stack up, I know what kind of dinner I can/should have and don't
bother to enter it. (Which is nice because dinners tend to be more
complex to enter.)

At this point, I could do without fitday entirely - indeed, you can see
that in the middle of that graph there's a section that's a straight
line for two weeks and then it jumps down to indicate continued weight
loss. That's when I took a vacation without net access. But I was able
to continue my diet just fine during that time. Fitday simply makes it
easier (and a little fun too in a geeky sort of way).

Me, too, Patricia. I don't use Fitday (except now and then to look up some
calorie counts), but I believe I'm doing the same thing as you in a way. I'm
tracking what I eat and calories in a food journal. It helps me a lot,
because I have a tendency to stop paying attention to what I'm eating and I
could easily gain back the weight I've lost. The food journal keeps me
focused.

What you say is true...Fitday IS only part of the equation.

BUT....

It kept me in touch with the reality of what I was doing (or not doing)

and

was a great way for me to see in a very graphic way .. I was indeed on my
way down.

Bless the person that conceived this idea and made it available.
