www.fitday.com is good for things like that.
calorieking.com is another good one..
thank you so much! I got on the fitday one cuz its the first one I saw, and have been tracking everything i eat. How much protien vs. my weight should i eat if i want to cut down? And also about how many calories per day should i take in?
nice sites

well, today i had a shake with half a banana, and 3 egg whites, and half a grilled chicken breast. I'll probly have another shake when i get back from the gym, then if im hungry later maybe a little tuna
I stick with the 1 gram per lb rule for protein. Those 3 egg whites only have about 9 grams of protein. Half a chicken breast has about 20.
Here is what I recomend - go to Target and buy a food scale. They are cheap and take the guess work out of dieting. I would be lost without mine. Also get a foreman grill if you can - it makes cooking meat VERY painless. Then weigh EVERYTHING you eat. It will seem like a big pain in the ass at first, but you will get used to it. PM, or e-mail me your stats and I'll put together a diet plan for you if you like...
Yeah i love the foreman! awesome...thanks~ :)
fitday is the way to go...
