Wouldnt it be great to have a scale that didnt just weigh your food but could instantly tell you how many calories was in it? Say put a prepared meal on it such as sausage balls and it could tell you what the calorie intake would be....counting the flour, cheese, sausage and give you a total. Im just putting this thought out there!:flowerforyou:

    I wish! If we're brainstorming here, what about a scale that broke down your weight loss into fat, muscle, water, and "other"? Then you'd get a really great idea of how effective your regimen really is!

    Weight Watchers does one that calculates points so it is not unrealistic that it can be done for just calories! Points are just calculated on fat & calories anyway!
  • MealSnap for iPhone (WISH they had it for Android!) will let you take a picture of what you're going to eat and it estimates calories.

    So much better than a scale - and better for travel.

    :flowerforyou: Good idea though!
