My New Pal
my hobby for life is forever dieting! hahahaha. and when i go dieting the usual thing that i alsways hear from other people is that i should check the calorie content of the food. and as i was browsing the net, i found the website of myfitnesspal. just from the name, you know that you have a pal or a companion in your dieting. when i was serious before in slimming down, i have a pal of my own. and it's really halpful if you have a diet buddy. coz your buddy will really help you in achieving your goal. i think that was the only time i slimmed down. and now here's myfitnesspal.. a new buddy. it would help me on what i eat, since it has a calorie counter. i don't have to check every back of the package to see the calorie count. before eating, just deciding on what i'll eat, i'll already know how many calories i will get from the food. and not only that, you just say your desired weight and timeframe, and it will tell you how many pounds you have to lose in a day. what you should eat, and of course exercise! dieting without exercise is nonsense. and the greatest thing about my new pal? it's free!!!

Kamusta?
thanks for the link Tin. I'll check it out. I might need a pal one of these days. it's really different if you have somebody to share your dieting blues. hehehe....
I think a better way to monitor calories is by the calorie density of the food.
If 20g of food has 100 calories, then it has a calories density of 5 calories per gram.
If 100g of food has 100 calories, then it has a calorie density of 1 calories per gram.
I try to avoid foods that have more than 2 calories per gram, but I am not always successful. sigh. So my weight keeps going up. Of course, I should probably eat less too and exercise more.
Good luck.
