Welcome to foodlogging!

What is the purpose of this community? To provide a forum in which people may track their food and liquid intake; count calories or Weight Watchers points or practice some other form of "intake moderation"; monitor their blood sugar; ask questions; post tips for successful food tracking or weight loss; and most importantly provide encouragement to fellow food loggers.

What it is not: a substitute for professional medical advice about weight loss. Nor is it a place for criticism about other people's food or lifestyle choices.
