So, how easy is it to actually input all your food?  Seems like it would be a 
hassle.

If your goal is pure weightloss, the best and fastest way is to start properly 
counting calories. Buy a Fitbit, link it up to MyFitnessPal on your phone, and 
be fastidious about entering what you eat. When you really track your calories, 
you will see exactly what you need to cut back on in order to maintain weight 
loss (or you'll go walk another 2-3 miles to work off the Snickers you just 
ate.)

I don't think anything works except calorie counting. It's way too easy to 
misjudge how much you're eating/drinking. My wife, my Dad and his girlfriend 
and a number of other people I know have been doing a Fitbit (or some similar 
step tracker) and MyFitnessPal and they've all lost a significant amount of 
weight doing it. All of them just set MPF to 1-2lbs of weightloss a week, it 
calculates how many calories you need to eat a day to get there and it just 
works. For a reasonable loss of 1-2lbs a week, you'll probably need to eat 
about 500 calories below your total daily energy expenditure, which is really 
not very hard, especially if you consume a lot of empty/junk calories today as 
those are the simplest things to cut back on.

I think that the truly good thing about this method is that it just modifies 
your daily behavior, rather than you switching to a fad diet, losing the weight 
and then going back to old habits, and it's not very difficult or expensive.

  I finally threw out my bag of DDT wetable powder.  Not popular with the 
Rachael Carson crowd...

  You need the DDT diet.

    Still trying to shed holiday pounds.  Seems harder each year.  I know a 
bunch of guys that have lost a bunch of weight with medifast.  Seems expensive. 
 I did nutrisystems years ago and it worked pretty good.  Any opinions?  (My 
wife is  a fantastic cook, getting rid of her is NOT an option).
