I get a lot of my food at Trader Joes. It's pretty frustrating to try to use a calorie tracking website and find that most of what I eat isn't in the database and I have to manually enter it. Then if I eat something that isn't an exact serving or portion I have to re-enter the data (e.g. a 12 oz serving of soup when the package serving is 8 oz - I can't just enter that I had 1.5 servings of a manually entered food).

I'm looking at starting up again and would like to try to find a site that has a comprehensive list of TJ's foods already entered. Anyone else a big TJ's shopper have a site to recommend? Thanks!

I don't know if you have checked out Calorie King yet, but here is the link to Trader Joes. There are 21 pages of food items listed so I hope this is what you may be looking for.

Your link worked perfectly. So far, the livestrong site seems perfect for my needs.

I'd like to use their free weight tracker but I can't find out where/how to enter my goal. When I go to MyPlate / Weight goals it says there are 3 features available to free accounts, but no way to access them from that page. How do I get there?

Thanks!

p.s. It's very annoying to get a nastygram notice that I can't "post a link" when the link is quoted from the previous user!

Then go to your myplate http://www.livestrong.com/thedailyplate/users/myplate/ once you;ve registered and logged in.

Yes, I registered. When I go to myplate, and click on "weight goals" the resulting page tries to upsell me on a paid "gold" plan. The first three features are listed as included in free accounts:

Unlimited Food & Fitness Tracking
Unlimited Weight Loss Goal Tracking
Ability to Export All Charts and Diary

Which is fine for my needs (and budget) right now. The problem is that I can't find any way to ENTER my weight GOAL. Where do I go to do that? I've tried both the classic and beta myplate pages, and I posted on the forum but got no answer. :-(

Thanks!!!

Ok, http://www.livestrong.com/thedailyplate/users/weight/ here and I update mine every couple of weeks.

Also, did you find the daily calorie goal http://www.livestrong.com/thedailyplate/users/myinfo/ so you can track what you eat?
