Another plug for My Fitness Pal. The food journal in My Fitness Pal helped me (1) realize how many calories I was consuming and (2) become more conscious of the nutrition content of those calories. I had plateaued after losing about 16 pounds, but I'm now back to losing 1-2 pounds a week based on a better balance of eating and exercising.
