Sharing daily food intake?

I'm pretty sure I saw a thread about this but can't find it. I was just wondering if anyone else would be interested in sharing what we eat on a daily basis. I know it would be beneficial for me to know what others are eating so I could maybe change things up a bit for me. Maybe if there were a way we could do it anonymously? It might also eliminate the need to check for caloric content(if anyone else does this) before I decide whether to eat something...:huh:

    I'd be willing to share, we have to find out from our master web designer if he can hook us up somehow. We should share the calories and the food, but after logging it in all day, I'm not sure if I'd be motivated enough to type it all in again on a thread, there has to be an easier way

    I wonder if there would be a way to enable those who are willing to simply share the link address to our food logs???

    Yeah i was the one that started the thread recently..i think it was under the suggestions forum...but yes, I would love the idea of sharing. It will give everyone an idea of what others are eating and maybe help with ideas, etc. :)

    I would love the option of making my logs available to the public, but I would think others wouldn't want to make their logs public, or maybe just wish to share them only on this site. It would be great if all those options were available. Thanks.

    My hope when I started this thread was that there might be a way that we could "share" without revealing who we are. I find myself opening the fridge or cupboard only to shut it & walk away hungry or eating something I shouldn't simply because I'm so bored with what I've been eating...:frown:
