I purchased some software for nutrional information that you might be interested in. It's called Balance Log and is available at Sam's Club in the pharmacy. You find out your RMR (resting metabolism rate), either using MedGem or by estimating., and answer questions regarding your age, height, weight, lifestyle and how much you would like to lose by what date. Then you log food items, water, excercise daily. It has reports showing you nutrional information: calories used, protein, fats, carbs and vitamins. You can log in a food and if it puts you over on your carbs or calories, you can delete it and find a replacement. You can also take any food item that displays nutrional information on the package and add it to the database. The information is put into the database in the same order it is placed on labels.
Anyway, I thought I would share this for anyone who might be interested. It's how I found out that even though I was way under in calories, I was not losing weight and my carbs were at 187%., I decided then and there to look into Atkins and here I am.
I hope this helps lots and lots of people out there. There is an equation at the Mayo Clinic site for determing your resting metabolic rate (how many calories you burn at rest)., so if you want you can see where you are.
Good luck!
