FatSecret is a new online diet, nutrition and weight loss community that harnesses
the collective contributions of our members to generate practical and motivating
information so that you can make better decisions to achieve your goals.
The Secret is Out!
FatSecret evolved from the idea that the most abundant and highly valuable source of
information on diet, nutrition and weight management is the sum of the views,
performances, achievements and recommendations of individuals that make up the
broader community. We've tried to create an easy to use system that gathers,
stores and sorts the input of members of the FatSecret community to provide quality
information and useful recommendations so that we can all benefit.
We think there's a real need to help people overcome their diet and weight problems.
We found it surprising that despite the enormous amount of information and products
relating to diet and nutrition in the market place (most of it costing a lot of money)
such a large proportion of the population is becoming overweight.
So what we're trying to do is to provide you with a structured system that not only
assesses if particular diet and nutrition information is right for you, but using the
contributions of our members, provides recommendations and advice that you can implement.
Best of all we think FatSecret is the diet solution of the people, by the
people, for the people (as a famous US President would have said if the
internet existed in 1863).

Did we mention FatSecret is free. What you see is what you get. Our view is that
the benefits of a vibrant diet community should be available for all. We are not
like those other sites that promise free consultations, profiles, plans or advice,
only to hook you in and then direct you to some paid product or 'premium' service.
We thought it was important to make that clear. Please relax and enjoy your time
with us and contribute to making the world a happier (and less fat) place.
FatSecret is not affiliated or associated with any of the diets or diet companies
that are referenced on our site. We provide our general opinion on some aspects of
these 'popular' diets but in no way endorse or support them or their programs –
we'll leave that to you.
FatSecret is not a medical organization, and information and reports generated by
us should not be interpreted as a substitute for medical advice or diagnosis.
Some diets may not be suitable for some people and you are urged to seek the advice
of a physician before beginning any weight loss effort or regimen.
We are a new site, developing new features as fast as we can. We hope you make
FatSecret a part of your day everyday. If you have suggestions or comments,
please Contact Us.
