Here's my weekend, Friday night to Sunday night:
6 baseball practices between my two boys
2 opera performances by my wife (oboe)
1 basketball game for my nine year old
1 softball practice for me
1 stairs training by me
So you'll forgive me for my post this weekend being a question:
Have you used a calorie tracking app? What advice do you have?
(By the way, I'm on Android.)

Hey, Alan.
I know this doesn't help (because it is not an app), but I use mapmyrun.com for mapping out mileage and dailymile.com to log it in. I really like dailymile.com and there is a bit of a community there with some of our favorite bloggers!
Nice weekend!
I use mapmyrun.com and the sparkpeople app for android!
I have a windows phone & use my fitness pal-it's available for android too. I love it. It's easy, has a bar code scanner to log servings fast...just awesome for a free app.
There are many good apps for calorie tracking. MyFitnessPal and FitDay seem to be quite popular. It seems to me they all use the same database.
I use LoseIt on my iphone and I love it because it is mobile and easy to use.
I guess I am the only one that does pen and paper even though I see myself as a techie. Helps me to write it down.
Little late to the party but I have used CalorieCounter from sparks and am currently trying myfitnesspal. I like myfitnesspal interface better, but calorie counter's database for looking things up is more complete for searching when I don't have a barcode to scan in my experience. Both have sync up options which is great.
I have an iPad, but haven't uploaded any calorie counter apps. I've used Physics Diet (very neat graphs that show you the trend of how you're doing based on an average of the past x no of days, so individual daily spikes don't tank your whole program) and Calorie Counter programs on my laptop, but not for a while.
Let us know what you come up with.
Track by your notebook, smart phone or anything you wish. but the most important you will track the accurate one. I 'd advice you and my clients for a heart rate monitor. polar is the best.

Wow you are busy!! Sounds fun! I don't use an app, so I can't help you! I know there are amazing ones out there. A friend showed me his the other day. I think it was fitness pal? Not sure, but he could point his phone at something and it would record all the stats about the item...calories, carbs, fats, etc.. It was pretty cool! I'm lucky to just keep my blog going, so I have not tried the phone apps yet.
OK I just read Miss S- that's what I'm talking about :-)
Keep focused
