Looking for a way to make counting calories more fun? Well, maybe not more fun (when is it ever?) but more convenient? The Diet Buddy is a hand-held nutrition calculator that lets you access the full nutritional information (calories, carbs, fats, sugar, fiber, protein, etc.) for more than 4,000 foods. It’s small enough to fit in a purse or pocket, so you can take it with you wherever you go. It also has an alarm to alert you when you’ve hit your daily limit of calories, carbs, sugars, or fats (I’m not sure I’d be particularly thrilled with this feature… like I want to know I’ve hit my max when it’s only 11 a.m.). In addition to helping you keep track of what you eat, the Diet Buddy acts as a pedometer that automatically counts steps and converts them into miles and calories. For $25, it seems like a pretty good deal.
