Gentle Subscribers will find a helpful selection of aids to help them reach or keep a healthy weight. "If you're looking for information on cutting calories and fat in your diet, achieving and maintaining a healthy weight, or your favorite low-calorie, reduced-fat foods and beverages (and the ingredients that make them possible)... you've come to the right place!" - from the website Among the site's tools are various types of calculators, including the Healthy Weight Calculators, individualized by gender, and the Body Mass Index. The importance of ancillary measurements, such as Waist Circumference, is also discussed. The straightforward and extensive calorie calculator spits out the numbers for everything from chips to chowders, while the enhanced calculator features an even larger database and can tot up a total daily calorie consumption. A useful and eye-opening tool is the Get Moving Calculator which reveals, based on height and weight, the often quite modest number of calories burned by various activities, such as stair climbing, walking briskly or shoveling snow.
