Cougarboard Crowdsourcing for Ideas: Weight Loss Tracking
I need to get into better shape!

I also need to lose some weight. I've decided on a goal of 30 lbs in the next 5.5 months. In the past, I have been able to lose weight by purposefully watching and tracking my exercise and changing my diet (my last successful weight loss included the succession of all soda and cutting back on ice cream). I've decided to really geek out this time an track all of my exercise and caloric intake. I need some help deciding on a method for tracking everything.

I currently have a fitbit that will track my steps, time exercising and weight. I don't have anything to track my caloric intake. Ideally, I would like to have something that automatically imports my fitbit results. What are your recommendations?

Thanks.
