What do you use to track food?

MyFitnessPal. Best thing ever. Once you have your most commonly eaten foods in your diary, it takes about 2 minutes per day to keep track of everything.

A journal and pen. Black ink, real paper. It makes the connection real to me. That is the same reason why I don't use a debit or credit card. If I swipe plastic it could be $2, $20, $200 or $2000 and it all feels the same. Paper money from my hand makes a real connection to me and tracking my food is the same way.
I found a great weight loss journal book, and that's how I did it for the first about 3 months or so. Then I heard about MFP and Baritastic, and I found it was just soooo easy to input into the app, I was a convert. PLUS I have it with me when I'm out, so even a spur of the moment stop for lunch or dinner, I have it right there to log my food. But then again, I never carry cash lol
MFP all the way (it has to be quick, easy and with me all the time to work).

MyFitnessPal. It has the most comprehensive database for food other there IMO. I also like the recipe builder.
