    Oh good to know! I know many folks ask and it's nice to have the sites out there for others to use.:flowerforyou: I try and include one of the links in a recipe if I share one without it being already calculated so it's easier for all of us, sometimes it's easy to forget that part.:blushing: :flowerforyou:

    I've tried using that but I've not had any luck. I start entering my ingredients and nothing comes up. I'm sure it's operator error but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong! :grumble:

    Did you get this message "! Some items could not be found or sized. Try changing the recipe text." ? caloriecount is sensitive to the spelling and to the specified quantity.

    To avoid this, you might want to try http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-calculator.asp - it's listing the food and then you can choose the quantity. I used it recently and found it more practical.

    Thanks, FC, for your post. :flowerforyou:

    Hey good to know folks...I posted a couple other sites after hearing a few were not super keen on thersparkpeople's site (oops..I should have done my homework better:blushing: :tongue: ).

    If Dew got Sparkpeople to work much easier I say go with what works best for ya:flowerforyou: :bigsmile:

    Sorry you had trouble WildCat....glad Dew jumped to the rescue:smooched: :wink:

    but thanks for the tip - I'm always on the lookout for new tools and websites!
