| Tips on usage of My Diet Wiz |
|
General:
The more accurate you are with the entry of Body Weight and Food Amounts, the more accurate will be My Diet Wiz's representation of your progress. Note that you don't have to enter weight or food intake every day for My Diet Wiz to be a useful tool in your dieting or weight loss strategy, but daily usage will insure you are using it to maximum effect.
Weight Entry: For ongoing use of My Diet Wiz and accurate calculations it is recommended to record your weight daily, and use a scale which measures in 0.2 lbs or 0.1 kg increments or better. For accurate weight representation it is also better to weigh yourself at approximately the same time each day, with approximately the same amount of clothing.
Food Entry:
As a general rule it is better to record all the food eaten in a given day, or record none. The programs calculations will be less accurate if for example you enter only half the food eaten in a day on a frequent basis. On balance it is best not skip too many days entering food as again the program calculations will be less accurate in reflecting your progress.
Activity/Exercise Entry:
Usage of My Diet Wiz does not use require for you to enter Activity or Exercise, as your initial Activity Level setting and ongoing daily calculations of metabolic rate will account for a persons average daily activity and exercise. For Activity or Exercise that does not fall into the persons average activity category, a person can use the Activity Log. Note that the reference for calculation of actual extra calories burned by the selected Activity is your average metabolic rate. So if for example the activity you choose is sleep or sitting, the calculation result will most likely be negative, lowering your day's calorie budget. |
