    I echo the majority of the reviews - this is a great little program. I have both the Palm and PC versions and I am seriously pleased.

    I would, however, like to be able to edit the exercise categories in the extremely flexible manner that one can with the food database.

    Although I know one can amend to a user defined activity, it would be good to be able to store that data rather than changing each and every time. I have had to set up a spreadsheet for all the other activities and need to cross reference that for the time / calories used to add it to my log.

    Just a suggestion¿. But overall ¿ a huge thumbs up!

    I have both the PDA & Desktop versions and really like both. I would recomend getting both because you can back up your PDA on the Desktop version. Also, you can add foods to the program and I am faster typing on my PC than my PDA! I like being able to add foods and that the included database has menus from several popular restaurants. I didn't like to have to pay for an upgrade, but it is worth it in the long run. The developer is very quick to answer questions. I like it!

    I have tried many diets over the past 20 years and I have had little success. I installed the diet program from Keyoe and I have lost 23 pounds over the past three months. I was amazed about the number of calories I was eating each day and this software allowed me to relaize how much extra I was eatting. This allowed me to track how much I was eatting each day. Thanks Guys!.

    The software is excellent. Very comprehensive and easy-to-use. I have been using it for several months now and have lost a good deal of weight.

    Using the desktop software you can copy and paste a meal (breakfast, lunch, dinner, or snack) or you can copy and paste a whole day. You can copy and paste one food item if you wish.

    I was very unhappy with both the desktop version and the palm pilot version of this program. I first tried another program and liked it because I could set up meals and snacks that I would often repeat. I then did not have to input each individual item each time had lunch, breakfast or dinner. Also, with the other one I could input individual food items and then quickly access them. I have not been able to do either of these things with Diet Assistant. The only reason I decided to use Diet Assistant instead of the competition is because the reviews here misled me into thinking Diet Assistant would be much better. I have asked for a refund from Diet Assistant, but have never received any response from them.
