Good calorie counter site
1/26/2019 at 6:38 AM

Looking for a site or way on the computer to keep track of calories. Don't want to use phone at this time. The site should allow you to search foods and how many calories each one is. Something easy to use daily to keep track. Have searched and so many but need something that works and others feel are worth using. THANK YOU

My Fitness Pal is a great site and if you do decide to use your phone or iPad there’s an app to download. You can do much more than track calories but you can search about 2 million foods. It’s very similar to the WW app that can also be connect to a Fitbit or other such device Good luck

I always used www.sparkpeople.com - it’s free. You can input foods you eat, it will calculate your intake, you can also input your exercise which it will use in conjunctiin with your food. Great program, hard to believe it’s free.

Lose it has all the foods including food from store and fast food restaurants, there’s a scanner that makes keeping track easy !

The OP wants a website not an app. MyFitnessPass scans barcodes too but the scanners are for smartphones only.

I lost 70 lb using MFP. It's great! And the site has forums that give you lots of support from people who have been there. Lots of before and after pictures too.

I highly recommend it. No need to get the premium version, the free one is fine.

Best of luck.

Lose it - have tried many different ones and it by far my favorite - use it mainly on the app, it syncs with the computer version when logged in with same account.
