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.
| Food | Units |

What's Cooking in my kitchen?

Finally my first Farro idea! I have to say, I love this stuff! It's chewy and yummy and, well, fun! I tossed it with what I could find in my pantry and it made a wonderfully satisfying lunch. Filling but not heavy, tasty and quite nutrient dense. According to NutritionData.com this [...] -
I've seen it mentioned in a few of my clean eating and healthy cook books but honestly, I never even thought of Farro as an option for me. I refuse to shop at specialty stores and I try to use only common products that I can keep in stock and purchase from a typical grocery [...] -
I've never had a tuna melt. Is that weird? I guess that's what happens when you grow up not liking mayonnaise. I never ate tuna salad or egg salad or chicken salad. Honestly, they always kind of grossed me out. Then I realized.. hey.. why does tuna salad have [...] -
I have no idea where this idea came from. I was hungry. It was lunch. I had Brussels Sprouts. That was all the catalyst I needed.:) I decided to use a slice of real bacon to add flavor and little fat that would help sauté the sprouts. I'm trying [...] -
WOW was this good. I mean seriously good. It's not vegetarian so don't start throwing stones. I'm calling it a Garden Vegetable Burger because I use the new Laughing Cow Smooth Sensations Garden Vegetable Cream Cheese Spread. It was this recipe on Allrecipes.com that inspired [...] -
I drink water 99.9% of the time but every so often it just doesn't cut it. I want something else. Something more. Something slightly sweet. Today was one of those days. I decided to make a refreshing drink based on the famous Arnold Palmer, half lemonade and half iced [...] -
The other day I made a whole chicken on the grill in pieces. It was delicious! Just a little BBQ sauce and an open flame is all I need to make The Husband happy in the dinner department. I also picked up a few ears of corn from the grocery store. They aren't in season [...] -
Let me explain so you don't think I'm making a chili recipe and just put it on pizza. I'm calling this vegetarian Chili Pizza because chili is what inspired flavors. I think I told you. Little Bean is really into, well, BEANS! We go through a can about every 2 days. Yesterday [...] -
I've confessed my inability to follow recipes here on GreenLiteBites many, many times. I don't know why it's so hard for me. I can barely follow some of my own and I wrote the darn things! I think most of my problem stems from not having all the ingredients listed and, [...] -
Leftover brown rice and leftover sauce meet in this quick lunch idea inspired by my favorite food of all time: Pizza. I swear I can turn anything into a pizza concoction. Have you seen all my pizza ideas? I've used everything from pumpkin to zucchini, polenta to wontons. Nothing is off [...] -
This isn't a recipe just an idea I had to share. I can't believe how good it was! I've never had grilled pineapple. Can you believe it? I just never really had the desire to grill it before. When you love something raw sometimes it doesn't occur to you to cook it. [...] -
I whipped this up for lunch on a whim today because, well, I have a baby who's obsessed with three things… Cheese, Beans, and Avocado. No, really. Look... It's my go to meal for him so I find myself with beans and avocado readily available. [...] -
You know that tradition 7 Layer Mexican Dip? The one with the cream cheese, guacamole, salsa, lettuce, cheese, green onion and olives? Yea. That's the one. Well I had a craving for it the other day. Well, not exactly for it as I can never make anything the way it's suppose [...] -
If you go through the archives of GreenLiteBites I have about 5 total beef recipes. Five. Compare that to the 80+ I have tagged with chicken/turkey there's a clear winner in the meat department on my blog and in my home. I don't have a beef with beef (omg The Husband [...] -
I'm a kitchen sink smoothie maker. Whatever I have on hand goes in the blender and viola! A quick breakfast or a healthy snack. Last year I posted an "Elastic Approach" to how I make smoothies but I still like to share specific combinations that worked really well. This was one [...] -
The other night it was just the kids and I home for dinner and I decided to make what I wanted to make no holds barred. Without The Husband home it's much easier for some reason. Hmmm wonder why? Ok, not here to husband bash.. really.. I'm not! I'm here [...] -
*sigh* I was really hoping to share an awesome turkey burger idea. I had grand plans for my leftover ground turkey. The results was alright but they could have been so much better. I added diced pineapple, red pepper, green pepper, oats and soy sauce to the meat and formed 2 patties. In hindsight I [...] -
I made this on a total whim yesterday having no idea if it would work. To my surprise it did AND the husband actually said he liked it... UNSOLICITED! Here's the story. I had only 4 tilapia fillets defrosted for dinner. I knew it wasn't going to be enough for us [...] -
This is a slight reboot of a recipe I posted last year simply called Sweet Potato and Black Bean Chili. Staying true to my use-what-I-have-on-hand roots I, well, used what I had on hand and made a similar dish with a spicy twist. Topping the result with avocado added a cool creaminess that [...] -
Did you hear? The Laughing Cow recently launched Smooth Sensations a line of 5 cream cheese spreads. There's Classic Cream, Classic Cream Light, Strawberries & Cream, Garden Vegetable and my favorite… Cinnamon. It's a sweet wedge of creamy goodness! Today I decided to use my new favorite flavor [...] -
Confession time, I recorded a 30 minute video making this with both kids (partally) 2 nights ago. I miss videos. I really do but they seem so much more difficult with 2 children. I'm also having technical difficulties with my video recording and audio syncing making it VERY time consuming to edit. [...] -
A couple of years ago I shared a modified version of Sloppy Joe's I made for a party. Everyone loved it but I've been wanting to try to make something similar for the family on a smaller scale and without the pre-made canned Manwich sauce. I don't particularly have any issues [...] -
Yesterday I was dreaming about a salad. Not just any salad, but a chickpea filled, cucumber, and red onion salad with a fun, tangy dressing. Unfortunately, I had no cucumber or red onion. Well, that's a lie. I had a half of cucumber but it was a mushy mess and [...] -
Dinner meals are getting harder and harder for me to share lately. I've gone back to just whipping things up without really measuring anything (this meal was going to be one of those until I realized I still had enough light to take some photos.) I've also instituted a few brainless meal nights [...] -
Three years ago I posted a video called "Makin' Hard Boiled Eggs" where I shared my system for, well... making hard boiled eggs. Genius name, I know. I'm smart like that. Anyway, since then I've gotten tons of feedback and comments thanking me but all the information is locked in a long winded 10 minute [...]

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 …
Check out Arlenes last blog post..Caitlin
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. :-)

Lori – I never sent a tweet from my phone (I have a crappy one!) Not sure if you seen this or if it will help… http://help.twitter.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=132
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?
