I love e-tools
 
I love the feedback from e-tools on Weigh In Day. If you lose, you get a nice little message, and if you gain you get encouragement to look back and see what you could and couldn't change.

That's one think I like that Sparkpeople was missing for me. It never gave me feedback on weigh ins, whether I was up or down. It was just that same lady holding her scale up.

And I like that I can put notes in at each weigh in so I can scan back and see what worked and what didn't.

Ooo, ooo! Me too! I put in stuff like vacations, visitors, restaurant I went to, Rx changes, sickness or flu and this week I will make a comment about the weather because it kept me home two (maybe three) days.

I don't like it when it says my points need to be reduced. :mad: (I lied - I do like it! ;) It means I'm losing!)

I love how easy it is to track your food. Setting up favorites and using the recently added section is so fast. Just drag and drop! I really credit doing so well this time around with the addition of online tracking.

Although I was an etools subscriber from the get-go, I never really used it until we switched to P+ - since I needed to look up points and learn a new program, I got the iphone app and absolutely love it! I would have a very difficult time returning to just paper tracking now.

I like the weight graph, that shows all the little milestones and how it will calculate your rate of loss, average points used, etc. for various time frames.

I am always on my computer at work, so it is so easy all day long to track online. I love it!

How much does it cost to use E-tools?

I have a monthly pass which is $39.95 and the E-tools comes with it. I believe you can use it for an online subscription only. Not sure of that cost though.

I love it too! I'm consistantly losing now that i keep it up on my computer all day. Sooooo much better than writing in that tracker. I was cheating myself thinking i could just keep it in my head. Seeing it in front of me has kept me real and i'm now consistantly losing :) YAY!

Me too! Especially to watch the weight tracker and inches tracker! I also like the positive reinforcement the website has 'built in'! However, I also find the meetings really great for accountability, so I think the combination of both and the monthly pass for $40 is really the way to go!

I have been doing WW since last March, but I just started using e-tools two weeks ago. I love it!
I find that I'm more diligent with my tracking.

Does anybody know why the monthly pass isn't available everywhere? It says it's not available in my area.
