Weight
155 today

I've been logging my daily food into the Fitday program, which is a great little tool, it really is, however....I just discovered a little hitch.  Every morning when I log the food from the previous night's supper, I check the "stats"--it's important to get plenty of fat, not so much protein, and a certain number of daily carbs should come from veggies.  I noticed a couple of days ago that the numbers seem high (too high) for the fat category and the protein, so I took a closer look at the details of each food.  It looks to me as if Fitday makes certain assumptions with foods such as broccoli and cauliflower, and even raw chicken eggs.  Because when I compared the nutritional numbers with those foods on this site, which is the one I've used for years, Fitday numbers are off.  For instance, I know darn good and well that there is NO natural fat in broccoli or cauliflower.  The good thing about Fitday is the ability to create your own "custom" food, where you can plug in your own values, and that's what I've done now.  I'm not going to go back and correct all of my previous entries; too much work, in my opinion.
