We all know that if you want to burn the baby fat, you need to eat right and exercise. One of the tools to help make your transition to eating healthier is by keeping a food diary. A food diary is basically recording what and when you eat and drink.

As Victor Stevens, who helped lead this study, of Kaiser Permanente's Center for Health Research in Portland states, "For those who are working on weight loss, just writing down everything you eat is a pretty powerful technique." It's so powerful that companies such as Weight Watchers International Inc use food diaries as an integral part of their weight loss program.
