Tracking Your Health

 Lately, I have been using this wonderful website Fitday.com to track my caloric intake and output.
 At first I was not sure that I would be down for journaling any part of my life, due to the uncontrollable amount of tracking and calculation that I did with Weight Watchers, which made eating a lot more complicated then it should be. Even though, I was not really interested in WW points concept, I did enjoy being able to keep record of what I was consuming. I understand now, more then ever that when trying to get in shape and eat healthy it is important to journal and keep track of food intake activities.

You can track your weight, BMI, Calorie intake and output, and mood.

You are able to share and reflect on your wellness daily on dissussion boards, in your online journal and set goals. journal, disscusion boards, and goals, Which are all helpful in the wellness process.

Also,  there is an Iphone app, yo make this tracker a lot more accesible.
Con's
It may be too simple for those who want a more attractive  and interactive layout.

There are a lot of ads, that may be distracting, which you can  pay for a  the Fitday Premium package, that has no advertisement, it is is a problem.


Overall, I really enjoy this website and  would recommend it to any one who is looking for a cost effective way to  track your wellness initiatives.
