Weight Loss with MyNetDiary
Counting Calories with a food diary is the most natural (and effective) way for you to lose weight
- Every day, your body needs energy - a certain number of calories - which it gets from food. When you consume more than this number of calories, your body stores it as fat and you gain weight. Make sense so far?
- So, if you consume less than this number of calories, your body will burn your fat to get the energy it needs. Thus, managing calories is the most logical (and the most effective) way for you to lose weight.
- Indeed, managing calories is the only weight loss strategy recommended by both USDA and American Dietetic Association.
- MyNetDiary gives you an effective, easy-to-use method of calorie counting. Follow your simple plan, and you will lose weight.
A diet you will actually enjoy!
You might be surprised, but keeping a food diary and losing weight is much easier than you think. Losing weight with MyNetDiary is not your typical diet.- No starving! Just a bit less food or a bit more exercise.
- No food is out of bounds.
- No distasteful pre-packaged meal plans.
- Safe, steady, long-term weight loss.
- No manual calorie counting - with a good food diary accurate calorie count and planning only takes a few minutes a day.
Each pound of fat = 3,500 calories. Calorie counting is the right approach, but was tough to do right - before MyNetDiary
Here are some of the problems associated with traditional "calorie counting" and diets.
First - Every calorie counts. EVERY SINGLE ONE. Being off by even 300 calories for the day (easy to do if you are manually counting) results in pounds of weight not lost.
Second - While counting calories manually, most people tend to "round down", and they also underestimate how much they eat. This also causes an inaccurate daily calorie count.
Third - No ongoing energy balance adjustments. When you lose 10 pounds your calorie needs also decrease. Thus, if adjustments are not made, your weight loss slows down (or even stops.)
Fourth - Counting calories yourself usually results in you setting unrealistic weight loss rates, and you end up starving and ultimately failing to stick with the diet.
Fifth - Calorie counting on paper or awkward software makes dieting much harder.
Lastly - you may have tried the pre-packaged foods, pills, or diet plans (like Atkins.) They are hard to stick to for life (do you really want to eat "bunless" hamburgers forever?), and they also may play dangerous games with your metabolism.
In the long run, weight control boils down to calories. Control your calorie intake (while eating whatever you wish) and you will lose weight and keep it off.
Does that make sense? Then read on to see how MyNetDiary makes this happen.

This is how MyNetDiary helps you to lose weight:
- First, MyNetDiary does an accurate, personalized analysis of your calorie and nutrient needs, based on USDA Dietary Guidelines.
- You establish your realistic weight goal and target date.
- MyNetDiary calculates both your energy balance and the number of calories you need daily to lose weight. There is no starving - a reduction of 500 calories a day is very easy to maintain, and means one pound lost a week, 4 pounds a month, 24 pounds in six months.
- Everyday, you enter your daily foods and exercises (and/or activities, like gardening) into MyNetDiary. It is simple to use, and only takes a few minutes. MyNetDiary has a HUGE database of foods and activities - almost any food or activity you can imagine is represented.
- MyNetDiary allows you to plan your meals (calorie intake), calculates your daily energy needs, and balances them accordingly.
- No food is out of bounds, even that chocolate or a special dinner "out". Total calories and energy spent are your focus - you are fine as long as you stay within your weekly balance.
- MyNetDiary charts your progress, so you can see where you will be next week, next month, or next year.
- As you lose weight, your energy and nutrient needs become lower. MyNetDiary then adjusts your calorie and nutrient recommendations. This is a key benefit.

My target weight is 145lb and I have tried many diets. I've tried the Atkin's, the South Beach, and NutriSystem, but without much success because they were so hard to stick with.
I've been using MyNetDiary for 4 weeks and I've lost 5 pounds! And it was so easy, I don't feel hungry all the time and still eat my favorites! Their food diary is unbelievably easy, I was afraid I could not do calorie counting, but it takes me three minutes a day. I often plan next day meals to stay under 500 calories. I went easy on me planning to lose 15 pounds in 4 months, and now I know I could do this. And the best thing is that I know how to keep it off!
