Tweet, Eat, & Post!
I did it! I finished my twitter food journal generator! Here’s the deal, use twitter to track what you eat through out the day then come here and, enter your twitter name and generate a table for your blog. How cool is that?!? Yes, yes, I know, I’m a genius! ;~)
In all seriousness, this idea smacked me across the face when journaling my food yesterday. I realized using twitter was much easier then emailing myself and then copy and pasting to the blog.
If you don’t twitter, have no fear! It’s as easy as pie. Sign up here. Once you do simply type a message and click update. That’s it!
Still twitter-phobic? My old table generator is still available!
So without any further ado, I present my food journal generated from the new Tweet, Eat, Post generator. Read more about it and how it works on the Tweet, Eat, Post! page.

If I was a good blogger this idea would have been published BEFORE the Super Bowl not during it. I made these today to have a little fun. Surprisingly, The Husband liked them even though he didn't eat more than one. Why? Because he's strange like [...] -
If you read my weight loss blog you know I'm battling a bit of back and neck pain right now. I'm starting to feel a little better but those first few days where rough. Being the head chef of the household, this meant we ordered in a couple of times. I'm [...] -
I'm LOVING Pinterest! I can just scroll all day long looking at food photo after food photo. I wish I had more time to peruse! (I'm RoniNoone there by the way?) The other day I pinned a Portabello Mushroom pizza and was immediately inspired. It's such a simple idea and so light. [...] -
The other day I found myself craving an Orange Julius. Are they as popular as I think they are? Growing up we had an Orange Julius at our local mall. It was always a treat for us at the end of a family shopping trip. Once I was old enough to be [...] -
So I'm a little breakfast nutty at the moment. Little Bean LOVES eggs and I find myself cooking them more and more. This morning I decided to go super light (after last nights chocolate overload) and it was totally satisfying for just over 100 calories! The trick to making [...] -
A few weeks ago I saw Chef Michael Simon make a raw kale salad on The Chew. He sliced beets up real thin and cut the kale into ribbons. Then made a vinaigrette out of red wine vinegar and olive oil. I was immediately intrigued. So far I've only [...] -
I've had this idea for a quick creamy chicken dish for a few days now. It was time to give it a shot. The whole family LOVED it. I'm not joking. The only complaint came from Little Guy who declared his hate of mushrooms yet again BUT he ate everything around them. Fine [...] -
I made this on a total whim yesterday as I had leftover avocado after feeding the baby and leftover Spaghetti squash cooked from the weekend. I roasted the squash to serve with my Chicken tips instead of potatoes and it was AMAZING! Anyway, I'm getting sidetracked. So I'm sitting there staring [...] -
It's post holiday season. You know what that means? Leftover Crescent rolls to experiment with! Every year for Thanksgiving I buy a few canisters. It's the only time I do as I can't be trusted around them. Let's just say I'd beat you in the How-Many-Crescent-Rolls-Can-You-Eat-In-One-Sitting game and leave [...] -
Last week the kids and I tried parsnips for the first time and I've made them 3 times since. I wanted to figure out the best way to roast them. Yeah, that's it, the best way to roast them. You'll buy that right? Right? The truth is, I'm obsessed. I found myself [...] -
Yesterday just felt like a good day to stuff an acorn squash. I had one sitting on my counter for quite some time and it was just begging to be cooked. Since both husband and child don't like it I made a solo meal just for me and, well, it was DELICIOUS! [...] -
I bought a fennel bulb on a whim for the holidays not knowing quite what I would do with it. Of course I forgot about until yesterday when I was rummaging through the fridge trying to figure out what I wanted to make for breakfast. I pulled it out and stared [...] -
I probably should have warned you I was taking a holiday hiatus. I've been soaking up every moment of family time imaginable these last few days, leaving no time for anything else. Not even blogging! Shocking I know. ;) So I return not with a new recipe, per se, but to [...] -
Here's a quick idea for when you find yourself with a spaghetti squash but don't quite know what to do with it. Come on. Admit it. That's happened to you too. It's sure happened to me! I roasted this squash on Sunday... [...] -
I'm not sure if this will be a crowd pleaser, but I liked it and thought I'd share in hopes it inspires you to have some fun with kale. I loved the combination of sweet pear, earthy kale, salty bacon bits and creamy hummus. The only issue with the wrap was [...] -
I'm going on day 2 of counting Weight Watcher Points and I'm already inspired to come up with light, healthy meals for myself. It's like I needed the constraint of points to motivate me. Isn't that weird? Anyway, all morning I was brainstorming what to make for lunch. I wanted something flavorful [...] -
I have a friend who patiently cleaned, peeled and cubed a fresh pumpkin and then selflessly gave me some. Scratch that, a TON! I would have never even thought of doing something like that! But now that I have it in my fridge the ideas are flowing. First, I roasted some [...] -
CHRISTMAS COOKIES! YAY! Sorry. I'm so excited! Little Guy and I had tons of fun making and decorating cookies today. It may just be my favorite part of the holiday season. I loved it when I was a kid and now I get to do it with my own kids. [...] -
This may be my simplest idea yet, but it was so tasty and satisfying I had to share. Plus you guys know I'm a Laughing Cow Community Leader so I'm all about sharing fun ways to use their products. You guys may also know how I feel about pausing and making [...] -
I made this on Thursday. THURSDAY! I hate when I can't post something I've eaten within 24 hours. It just bugs me. Not sure why, it really doesn't matter when I post it, does it? Anyway, I did whip this up to cure a pizza craving and I couldn't be happier. [...] -
It's been awhile since I jazzed up a tilapia fillet. I've breaded them before, coated them in oats, flavored them like one of my favorite drinks and topped them with a fun salsa. It was time to bring nuts into the party. You are going to think I'm crazy but I've [...] -
Fun leftover turkey idea #2! Click here for leftover turkey idea #1. I had a little Gouda leftover from this years Harvest Salad and decided to put all the same flavors from the salad into a quesadilla. I just can't get enough of the smokey gouda/sweet craisin combo. It goes [...] -
It's the day after Thanksgiving and my refrigerator ROCKS! I have leftover turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, roasted Brussels Sprouts, a bunch of veggies and tons of miscellaneous fun stuff. I've already made stock from the bones (like this) and my first batch of soup, Classic Turkey Noodle. I hope to share [...] -
I'm so sorry I've been slacking in the Thanksgiving recipe department. I feel like a bad food blogger. Everyone else is posting festive ideas and here I've gone missing for a few days. Maybe it's because I'm not doing anything special for Turkey day. I finally got my holiday cooking [...] -
I just made a quick, tasty one pot meal the whole family ate without complaint! And when I say "whole" I mean WHOLE! The Baby, The Little Guy, AND The Picky Eater Husband! Here's the story…I was in NO mood to spend a lot of time on dinner. The thought [...]

Ohh you should do another one for exercise.
Is that possible?

Hey there. I have a tilapia recipe on my site that is soper easy. It is tilapia and potatoes in an aluminum foil packet. We had them for dinner last night. My husband and I really like them…and he does not realize how healthy it is, so I really like that. :-)
Will you still keep your regular food journal generator? I am not sure if I can use Tweeter with my WordPress site…I don’t know much about Tweeting…lol
Check out Christys last blog post..I want more sleep…
Genius indeed! Where on earth do you get the time & energy? You’re a modern superwoman. I agree with sraikh… one for exercise would be fab too!
Thanks so much for all your hard work.

sraikh – I can! What I’m trying to figure out is how to combine the two! But I could do a separate one pretty easily.
Christy – No plans on pulling the old generator. Actually what I’m going to do is create a blog tools section where all these will be accessible.
You made it so quickly, too. I use the WW tracker, so this would be doubling my efforts, but it’s a great idea for anyone out there who’s tired of writing it all down on paper, as I was. It makes a HUGE difference to be able to track like this.

OMG, Roni, you’re a genious! I put the generated food code in my Blogger, Settings, Formatting, Post Template space so it would show with each day’s post. This will hold me more accountable and make me post regularly too! Love your blogs!!!
Check out Nanas last blog post..I’m a sorry blogger, aren’t I
Question, Roni, does the Twitter table update itself during the course of the day? Or do I paste the code at the “end” of the day.
I just joined Twitter, so I’m a bit ignorant about this.
Check out Nanas last blog post..Sheer genious
I’m VERY ignorant about Twitter. I’ve been reading your Tweets since they’ve been on your page, and I signed up 18 days ago, but I just tried using it last night when you gave us the test food journal…..and I figured out how to tweet my food….but what I can’t figure out is how to send a tweet TO someone. I’m following you, Roni…but you’re the only person I know who tweets.
HOLY COW! Amazing!! Thank you!!
Nana – Yes it will updates after you update. When I have time I’m thinking of a WordPress plugin that will update in real time on your own blog but for now this is just a snap shot of what you eaten so far. So stop by at the end of the day and grab your table!
I just had to add that I can’t go grocery shopping anymore without seeing something from your site, whether it’s from a recipe or a food you were reviewing. LOL I saw a carton of Kefir today (which I wouldn’t have even noticed there before), and almost got some, but didn’t get up the nerve to yet. I bet it would be good to make smoothies with. You’ve opened up a whole new world of foods to us! :) (I won’t even go into the turkey pepperoni addiction you started in this house! I’m sure Hormel thanks you.)
Check out Shannans last blog post..8 Minutes!
Bonnie – everyone starts somewhere! :~) You don’t actually send someone tweets they subscribe or follow you and then get them. Shoot me your username and I will “follow” you to show you how it works. Does that make sense?
Shannon – I know, right! They should start paying me! LOL
Such a cool idea! I love making things like that, but the problem with me is the follow-through.
I just wanted to comment and say how cool I think this is– I really think you’re going to help a lot of people track. That said, I am not sure I’m ready to share all my food with those who follow me on Twitter right now, but still … nice work! You are now one of my script-writing heros.
What a fantastic idea! I signed up for Twitter just to use the new food table generator. I think I’m going to enable the phone option so can can text myself when I’m out and about.
OK. I know you’re fast asleep and won’t answer this tonight, but I had some trouble with the chart generator. I entered food throughout the day, and when I went to do my chart, only the last two items came up.
I was wondering if it has something to do with my trying to do the chart after midnight EST …

Arlene – That’s EXACTLY the reason. I haven’t figured out how to overcome the past midnight issue. Let me stew on it a bit!
I have been trying to figure out how to send a Twitter from my phone. I must have missed something in the instructions and now I can’t seem to figure it out! Darn!!!!
I am following you. I can see my twitter on my computer, but I’m not sure whare to send my text from phone and how to gt your table. Sorry for the ignorance. Is there a simple answer, for the non techy person. :-)

As for getting to the table, here’s the link… http://ronisweigh.com/ronis-resources/tweet-eat-post

Okay not sure what I am doing wrong…when I enter my twitter name and hit submit a new page comes up but it says “Twitter Feed Not Found”
Can you help?
