I am trying to keep track of what I eat and in the past having a food journal didn't work out because I get lazy and don't write things down or I just don't eat at all because im too lazy to write it down. Either way I was too lazy to do something. Now I feel like I can just get over and do it. Any suggestions? And explain why it's good and how it helped you (if you tried it)
I second (third?) MyFitnessPal. Another good one is Fooducate. You can track your meals, but it also functions as a scanner. When you're at the grocery store, you can scan barcodes on items to see how healthy it really is. And if you're trying to avoid something in your diet, like high-processed foods, you can indicate that and it factors into the grade the product gets.
I agree with the three people above me, MyFitnessPal is amazing! I've been using it for a while and it helps a lot. I've tried a few other apps too but I wouldn't bother recommending any of them. Also, I know they have an app for Blackberry, iPhone and Android so you're not limited on mobile options
