A very complicated program and does not work well for someone who is a vegetarian vegan. Received a CD only, not even in a box. No instruction book. I feel I wasted my money. Have not figured out the program and have given up. Bite the bullet in this purchase. Do not recommend.

This program has a tutorial that I recommend people watch. My biggest complaint is that it’s hard to find foods in their food dictionary. Other than that, though, it seems to work pretty well. There was a good program a while back called LifeForm that was pretty awesome, but they stopped supporting it. Diet Power could learn from them – it was easier to use. I imagine that with time DP will be easier to use.
2 months later, I deleted this program. Even though it told me that I was doing “well!!” with lots of accolades, according to WeightWatchers, I’d consumed 50% more than I was supposed to. It doesn’t work for me at all. Perhaps it might work for someone else.

This is a great program. I’ve lost 32lbs so far. (I’ve actually created this system where if I go on a negative bank balance I give someone $1.50 per each day I’m in the negative. This has really motivated me to lose weight). At first I wanted to disable the Nutrition Quotient feature but now I’ve come to really appreciate it. Although the interface could be easier to use, (it seems like it could use an upgrade) overall, it works, and that’s the bottom line. Highly recommended! (I should mention that I have tried about three other weight loss software programs/web sites, and none of them worked as well as this one did).

If you have reached the point where you are serious, where you have determination and conviction, to follow any diet program… then Diet Power is the very best I have found. I find that when I use it regularly as a powerful guide to keep me on track and focused, it works like nothing else.
The nutrients / vitamins / minerals tracking is wonderful. Talk about help to get on and stay on a WELL BALANCED diet! This part of the program alone is a powerful tool. I find that I get sick less often when I use it and pick those foods where I fall short (as well as cutting those foods where I over-do).
The graphs are great for seeing progress (or lack of it). Overall this is a motivating program to help stay on track IF you use it.
I do not input any exercise, I figure any exercises I am doing is “extra credit” (I go in streaks with activities) and it’ll show in my resulting weight loss / health without entering them in the program… but to record my exercise and thus have the program allow me more calories for that day (because I burnt some in the exercise, and if recorded in the program, my daily calorie allowance is increased to reflect those I spent in the exercises.. if that makes sense to you lol), well that has not been productive for me, the last thing I need is to think that I can eat more if I spend a 1/2 hour on the treadmill, I like seeing continual progress and not logging my exercises actually helps me to stay motivated. I don’t feel down on those days when I don’t exercise. I figure why put myself in a situation where I may feel that I have failed in any given day just because I didn’t do it “all”. I use the program just for diet and nutrition.
The only part that can take more time than I like, is entering in my own recipes so program will record the nutrient values and portions properly for that recipe. I like to try new foods, so I find myself punching in “recipes” a lot, and those creations I make on the fly as I’m cooking… But I do take the time because if I stay true to the program then I know I’m as healthy as I can be and I feel it. Diet Power is a fantastic tool, but remember, books/dvd’s/programs don’t lose weight, people lose weight… with determination and conviction you will do well and Diet Power can help you greatly
) Good Luck!!!

I downloaded the trial version because they said on their website that it worked with the Weight Watcher’s diet and many other diets. When you fill in your profile, it has a place to mark which diet you are using, but that is about as far as that goes. There is no way to add point values to food, therefore no way to track your points. So it was useless for my particular needs.
However, out of all the programs I have tried, it was the easiest to start using. They have easy to follow videos on their website to help you get started. I also liked that it tells you when you are low or high in a certain nutrient (compared to the RDA). It would have helped track my chronically low magnesium, iron, and vitamin A.
If you want software to track your calorie and nutrient intake and suggest your daily calorie budget, I think this would work really well. It does not, however, do all they suggest.
