This site really rocks! I am so glad I found it, I started relearning to eat exactly at the same time this site went live, in october! Now Calorie Counter makes my life easier, and yes it’s fluff free, that’s the cool part of it. Thanks sooooo much!

Cheers from Tunisia

I happened to “Stumble” upon your site. Great job, and really useful information! (I enjoyed reading about the 88 foods that can kill you – yikes!)

Chris, the blog is indeed Wordpress. I did all of the design/interface stuff, but anything that required any actual programming skill was done by a very awesome freelance guy. But as far as I’m aware, it’s all straight php/javascript.

Hey, great site. While the data is definitely useful, I’m most impressed with the simple design and interface. Do you mind mentioning what technologies you used to build it? It seems the blog is done in Wordpress, but the rest looks hand made. Did you use straight PHP/Javascript, or something fancier like Ruby on Rails? I’m interested because I have a similar type of site (aggdata.com), centered around the collection and display of data. Thanks!

Hey there

GREAT SITE!! I don’t know if it’s due to a lack of exercise or i’ve just been eating more… but i have noticed my thighs steadily looking worse in skirts and shorts so i tried looking up websites which would help me thin my thighs down

most of the websites i’ve come across say less calories in than calories out is the way to go and aCalorieCounter.com is by far the best and easy reading site i’ve found so far

thanks you! fabulous site!! and keep up the great work!

Chang, thanks man. You’re quite welcome.

Gee2, glad you’re liking it. All of that other stuff you mentioned (logs, graphs, etc.) are sitting on my “to-do in the future list.” Some day, they will be on the “done” list. I promise. =)

I love Calorie Counter!
This is easy and fast.
I started using this system yesterday…and loved it. And this morning I did my CC. Although, I had way too many calories…it was a wake up call for me…to slow my roll and be more conscience of what I eating.
My plan is to use cc at the end of the day or first thing in morning..

I wish we could have included in CC… individual daily log food eaten, with graphs, etc…to give more visual perspective of eating habits/patterns and progress…day by day log, week by week, etc…

Comments?

Dude, I’ve been looking for all these nutritional information sites and you’ve come out with the SIMPLEST of them all. That’s just what makes this place so useful. Thank you for putting all the work into your website!
