User Success Stories
• SuperTracker users commonly report:
– Weight loss
– Increased awareness of personal eating & activity patterns
– Improved motivation for a healthy lifestyle
With the help of the SuperTracker website, I have lost 75 pounds in the last year.
My attention to & selection of fruits and vegetables has improved in a very short time. I also appreciate the ability to identify where my key sources of empty calories are each day.
I set up a profile in SuperTracker and am motivated like I haven't been in a long time!
I just wanted to say thank you for providing SuperTracker for free. It is better than any of the other online calorie counters I have used.

Weekly Motivation: “If I have the belief that I can
do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do.” – Mahatma Gandhi
• Tracking works! Keep track of the physical activities you do. When you keep track, it's easier to reach your weekly goal.
• Fitting activity into a daily routine can be easy. Take a brisk 10-minute walk to and from the parking lot, bus stop, or subway station.
• Move whenever you can. Even at your desk, you can stand and talk on the phone, lift weights, or walk around.
