Here's What Others Are Saying about the CaloriesCount.com Healthy Weight Loss Program …

Good Housekeeping

The article "The Skinny on Weight-Loss Sites," in the November 2006 issue of Good Housekeeping, recommends Caloriescount.com, noting "You can pick a recipe-based plan if you like to cook, a convenience-based plan that incorporates frozen and quick-prep meals, or a combo of the two." The article continues, "No books to buy, no meetings to attend, and 24/7 access to customized eating advice: There's a lot to like about cyber diet plans."

Today Show

Couric: People that are listening to you are going to think, how did she do it, obviously this was a good method, but in terms of your food choices and exercise decisions, tell us quickly, what's the key to your success?

Joan Rainwater (CaloriesCount.com Member): Good food choices, Having the tools at CaloriesCount.com to help me and exercise.

[Note: Joan, a long-time CaloriesCount.com Member, also was featured on the cover of the June 20, 2006 Woman's World magazine! -- Way to go Joan!!]

Associated Press / CNN / USA Today -- "More Dieters Heading to the Internet":

"Joan Rainwater, a paralegal turned yoga teacher from Waterville, Ohio, used to be a "grazer," constantly snacking at night without keeping track of what she ate. But after Rainwater signed on to CaloriesCount.com two years ago, she discovered that being anonymous helped her keep faithful records of her weight without the pressure of weigh-in meetings. "I was more honest with myself," said Rainwater, who shaved off 32 pounds and slimmed from a size 14 to a size 6."

Wall Street Journal:

"One of the most useful tools is a diet questionnaire to help users set weight-loss goals... Experts say personalization helps dieters stay on track because they are less likely to stymie good intentions by setting the bar too high. The CaloriesCount program offers paying members an enhanced calorie-counting database (which includes thousands more foods), a series of weekly meal plans that cater to different dietary needs, access to nutrition and fitness experts to provide guidance or motivation, and chat rooms for support from other dieters. The site offers many of the tools touted by its brand-name competitors, at a much lower cost. Another nice surprise was that the site doesn't focus on pushing dieters to purchase the member companies' branded products as rival weight-loss sites do."

American College of Sports Medicine's Health & Fitness Journal:

"CaloriesCount.com: Healthy Eating and Exercise for Life is a Web site designed to help busy people fight the battle of the bulge by educating and assisting people to achieve a healthy weight, primarily though a balanced diet incorporating their favorite foods and appropriate physical activity. The site contains comprehensive calorie counters, an exercise calculator as well as other useful features such as customized meal plans, live chats with weight loss experts, and current articles and tips needed for making informed food decisions."

Tampa Record:

"If you need to lose just a few pounds or lots of pounds, there is no need to fork out a lot of money to receive truly effective tools for your weight loss effort. A new online weight loss support website – www.CaloriesCount.com – has just the tools weight-conscious consumers have been seeking."

TheGazetteNews.com

"CaloriesCount.com is focused on tried and true sensible methods of weight control that help people lose weight and keep it off, helping people learn how to adopt a healthier lifestyle."

Detroit News/Free Press:

Four stars for Calorie Control! (caloriescount.com) -
"This site is packed with stuff … But the tool that's really handy is the calorie counter. Unlike many such online gizmos, which are so incomplete they're of little use, this one is filled with data. The info is great on its own. But if you want, you can click on the "Add another food item" button and cobble together all the elements of an entire meal or of an entire day. Once you have everything together, the site will calculate the fat grams or the percentage of fat in your list. Counting calories can be dispiriting. But if you're committed to losing weight, it's a necessity."


PC Magazine Site of the Day

"Calories still count. This site offers guidance on cutting fat and calories in your diet, achieving and maintaining a healthy weight, and making (healthier) versions of your favorite foods. Don't overlook the invaluable Calorie Counter, which reveals the quantitative virtues of vegetables and culprits of cake."


Orlando Sentinel

"Win at losing with cybercalorie counters, body fat measurers and more at the Calorie Control page."
