You can also track meals, general medical info and you can even upload pictures of yourself.

"Weightmania Professional's interface is jam-packed with tools...We are particularly impressed with its nutrition search; just enter a food and a list of matches from its database detailing the item's calories, sugars, vitamins, and nutrients is given.
Fitness buffs will appreciate this program's elaborate approach for maintaining a healthy lifestyle."

"I spend more time on the computer than I do on the roads, so I've seen plenty of training sites and sampled far too many software packages. Most of them are either exercise logs, with nutrition as one of several features, or nutrition-based, with an exercise log added on...I like the Weightmania package which offers the best balance of exercise and nutrition..."

"Weightmania is more than just a training log, it is a complete lifestyle log allowing you to record not only your activities but also every single calorie, gram of fat, carbohydrate and anything else you eat...It really does have it all, including a huge database of food types with their typical nutritional values. It also has tools such as body fat calculators, BMI calculators, BRM calculators and many more, and even goes as far as having recipe managers and grocery lists. For those of you who want to record and manage your entire lifestyle this tool does it all...The Mac version has a nice modern interface."

"Weightmania is a tracking wizard!!
I looked at a lot of different options that track workouts and also track nutrition, etc. I purchased a different program (workoutware) and after inputting all the necessary data, the output was unsatisfactory. I returned it and then bought this program.
I have to say that this program is outstanding! It not only tracks all different types of workouts, it also will track meals/nutrition, measurements, medical and general information.
There is a USDA 8000 food database that is included and inputting any additional foods was really easy!
There are also options to create custom workouts and food plans for those of us that usually eat the same thing in the morning.
Another great thing about this program is that you can cut and paste things from one page to another. I took certain workouts and cut and pasted them to another day and changed certain info. It worked like a charm!
I recommend this product to anyone that is looking to not only track their workouts, nutrition, body mass, etc, but also to those people that are just starting out exercising or watching what they eat. If I would of had this when I started to workout, I could of tracked different aspect of my overall plan and then seen the results and what trouble areas that I have to work on.
Now after inputting my info in this software (no more than a few minutes after each meal or workout) I can "see" what I am doing and how it looks over days/weeks/months.
I also emailed the technical support on a question and had a reply back within 24 hours. They were friendly and answered all questions.
If you are looking for the cadillac of workout/meal tracking software, you need not look any further."

"I have just taken a look at old data in my Weightmania database. I have been using it for just over two years. I have beaten a prediabetic diagnosis (no longer prediabetic!), went from borderline high blood pressure to daily perfect blood pressure. And I lost 90 pounds. What weightmania did for me basically was to keep me from getting discouraged based on subjective perceptions. Example. You feel you are not making progress, that you have been on a plateau forever. When you go back to DATA, objective measureable data, you are put right back on track. We have a very subjective relationship to time. Our motivation might fluctuate when we don't have the feeling there is progress. You got back to the DATA, and there it is. Each time the numbers told me I was right on track, not behind, not ahead, and that I just needed to be patient, that it takes time and effort to get where I needed to get. I needed to loose 135 pounds. I figured it would take me a little over three years (my nutrionnist and I have set a goal of no more then 3 pounds per four weeks, to not only loose it, but keep it off). I have not regained not one single pound. I went from a sedentary life and job to a daily commute to work by bike, to laps many times a week, but all things interwoven in my daily life. Not the 'let's make a big effort and get a gym subscription', and then drop everything once you reach your goal. This is a lifelong comitement to being healthy. It is in that perspective that Weightmania came in as a precious tool. Something to keep my cool in moments where I felt it was not working anymore. But the numbers, all the numbers, kept reminding me it was working JUST FINE. So, keep up the good work!"
