I would really prefer to be able to track my food online. I'd like to be able to keep an electronic journal that I can capture all my meals (JC, fruits, milks, and others) as well as additional foods eaten, with a calorie counter. In addition it would be excellent if I could keep my daily activities in the same place. This way at the end of the day I can see exactly what I've eaten and how I've burned my calories.

I agree. I'm using FitDay right now but it's annoying to have to enter all the JC food all the time until I've got a whole custom directory.

Jenny's website and etools are sadly lacking.

I agree. I expected a real meal tracker here. I'm disappointed. I'll have to look else where for that.

I agree totally. I waited for 5 days to get on Etools, made sure I kept a copy of all foods eaten, and then found that there was no on-line way to track the food. This is a great disappointment and a big loss for Jenny Craig clients. Does anyone know if there is work being done to create an on-line tracker?

I doubt it
Since they bought into the Metabolic Max I am sure they see no point

I was using myfitnesspal.com before getting the arm band. It had all the JC food in the database and has Iphone aps as well as online updating

I have to agree with this one. Yes, if you are a MM client, great tool. But what if you aren't? Why not have an app that can be used online or through a smart phone?

Another who agrees and is disappointed with the eTools.

So. Theres no cell ph app where you can log your jc foods, adds, water, & exercise yet? Oooh thats a dissapointment. I was considering changing from another plan that has those tools. Its very helpful to stay on track. To have all the jc meals already entered, so you would have to just click away on your ph. I was looking here because im tired of the meal selection from other plan. I have lost just about 30 lbs since jan this year and have about less than 10 to go. Im used to logging my intake on my ph when not hunched over my computer. I'll check back soon. Maybe something will change. I really want to try jc and the foods. I dont know if i can hack it without that tool thou.

Why don't you post this request on the ASK THE WEBMASTER forum to see if he/she knows when JC will be adding an app.

I love http://www.myfitnesspal.com (there is also a free app) and I have no troubles searching out ANY Jenny food on there! I LOVE it. It is so EASY!! I also record all of my exercise on there! It is very motivating! I hope Jenny comes up with something like that too!

Good luck!
