Spark People best damn weight loss site EVARIt's free.
It's awesome. And I lost about 40 lbs using it (gained it back when I stopped LOL)
There are no fad things to buy, they offer a menu if you want to use it, if not just get rid of that part in your tracker.
It has a spot to log how much water you are taking in (any beverage counts just adjust the calories in your calorie tracker).
It does the math for you and lets you input whatever it is you are eating. You give it your goals and body type and it recommends what your daily goals should be for calories, carbs, fats and proteins (you can track other things too but this is the standard).
Not only that, it has a spot to track your exercise and gives you a report at the end of the day to show you how you are doing. Did you go too far below your calorie deficit, not low enough or were you right on balance?
There are message boards you can use for support, and groups you can get involved in. If you have a Wii, there is is a lot of Wii support groups that use various games to challenge each other and work on your goals.
If your food isn't listed in the list you can put it in manually just using the information on the nutrition label. It's an awesome free site, that focuses on weight loss the healthy way. There's quite a few blogs that people keep there that will help you get through the plateaus as well. So it's like a cyber weight watchers minus the shitty meetings you have to attend.
Good luck. I'm going to get back on it soon. Probably next week after the hubz gets back from his conference (me and three kids alone not prime time for dietary changes ha!).
