Restaurant Calorie Counter For Dummies (For Dummies (Health & Fitness)) Review

Restaurant Calorie Counter For Dummies (For Dummies (Health and Fitness))
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This book is an excellent compilation of nutritional information for food from almost every mainstream restaurant.
More than just calories, there is listing of fat, salt, etc.
The information can be used to infer the calorie count of dishes from restaurants that aren't listed. For example, you can look up a burger from Island's and use it to estimate the calorie count of similar burger at a local burger restaurant.
The book is small but thick and that makes it a bit heavy to take with you when you go out to eat. If you are meticulous about what you eat and want to plan ahead before you go to the restaurants, this is a great book to have in your collection.

The Ultimate Calorie Counter Review

The Ultimate Calorie Counter

I am very disappointed with this book. I wanted a book to help me keep track of my daily intake of calories. Not pages and pages full of the author's opinions and tips on weight loss. A lot of the items listed are commercial food that by law have to carry nutrition info anyway. I am prefectly capable of reading a nutrition lable for calories, I don't need the added step of finding it in this book, which doesn't have a very good order of listing items in my opinion. Instead I recommend "The Doctors Pocket Calorie, Fat & Carbohydrate Counter: 2002 Edition, Plus 101 Fast Food Chains and Restaurants" and "The Complete and Up-to-Date Fat Book: A Guide to the Fat, Calories and Fat Percentages in Your Food" - both of which are available from amazon.

I was expecting a general calorie counter, but this is a great one to have around, so I kept it. It seems very complete for most of the restaurants and fast food restaurants.

The book is very small and doesn't have a lot of the food that I eat so it was not very helpful for me. I could not tell anyone to buy this book unless they are into a lot of processed food and restaurant eating. If that is you, you might like this book!
