Eating smart
With Slimtrack's free online tools you know exactly how anything you eat or drink will affect your slimming program. This means you CAN occasionally indulge in fatty foods or a glass of champagne...
Keeping an accurate food diary is one of the best ways to ensure enduring weight loss success. By simply recording everything you eat and drink, you are already on your way to a healthier diet and weight. And recording your actual kilojoule intake will make the slimming process even more effective.
Slimtrack makes it easy to keep a simple, accurate food diary. Simply search our database for the specific items and portion sizes of what you have eaten, and click to add it to your diary. Every item is recorded into your diary along with its kilojoule count and is kept on record for as long as you remain a Slimtrack user.
As your kilojoule count increases during the day, you can constantly see if you are still within your allowance for the day. By also recording the kilojoules that you burn through your Slimtrack food diary, you can see how exercise increases your food allowance "budget" for the day - the more you exercise, the more you can eat and still lose weight.
When recording the kilojoule content of everything you eat, you quickly discover how to eat smarter. This might mean avoiding certain types of food during certain times of the day or week, or eating the lower-kilojouled of two similar types of food. And if you do indulge by eating something not-so-smart, you will still know how to make up for it!
