Tweet, Eat, Post Version 3 – Now Available!
December 3, 2008
I probably should test this more but I’m too freakin’ excited. I finally finished version 3 of my Tweet Eat Post tool. Check out the table I just generated with it for today’s food journal (yes this is what I ate today)…
| Food | Units |
|---|---|
| wrap on lavash bread with turkey, a bit of cheese and tons of veggies – my fav breakfast! | 5 |
| soynuts | 2 |
| cup of crab soup / best crab cake in balt! with a salad on the side – estimate | 9 |
| picking after lunch on the hubands fries darn it | 3 |
| dinner was yummy pork loin, peas and noodles | 9 |
| popcorn – ok, so i had the munchies | 4 |
| quick gym trip… a little running, a little bike and some ab work | -3 |
| blue bunny ice cream bar | 2 |
| test entry — sorry :) | 0 |
| Total: | 31 |
Table provided by Roni’s Food Tweet, Eat, Post Generator.
Here’s how it works… throughout the day I used twitter to enter my food journal entries (even doing it from my phone). Then I go to the Tweet Eat Post page to check out my table and generate the code for the blog.
You may have noticed my new food Journal Twitter Account, RonisFood (That’s in addition to my “regular twitter page, RonisWeigh). Look to the right next to my twitter updates to see my current food feed. As I say on the Tweet Eat Post page, I recommend creating a separate account just for your food Journal. It makes things a lot easier.
If you are interested in using the tool I have a complete write up below the form on how to do it. If you have been using it already I added some new features! Including choosing your start time AND a new hash to mark the tweets…. #tep.
Check it out and let me know if you have any suggestions, comments, or questions. As always, it’s a work in progress!

Roni, as always, you never fail to impress! This is a great resource and an easy way to keep a journal throughout the day.
I would be excited to! Keep fighting the good fight!

I think maintaining weight loss would be a lot easier if you ate more of those test entries. Are they any good?

You are way too technical for me Roni – but so cool!
Hi Charlie! Love, your prettier sister!

Thanks, Roni! I set up a separate Twitter account a couple of days ago to keep my journal entries from publishing to my Facebook account. Amazingly enough, I included “food” in the username, so I clearly must be psychic. LOL

So cool but for the life of me I can not seem to get an account set up? I already have one but was trying to do the new one just for food and it kept having me type in the security words over and over??? Is there a trick to it? I just typed what I saw but maybe I’m doing something wrong??? HELP! :)

Donna,
Did you get it?!? I had the same problem, it took me like 5 tries it’s so freakin hard to read!
There is a sound icon you can click and it will speak out each letter, that may help.

I’ve been lurking at your blog for a few months now reading all of your wonderful insights. But I finally set up a twitter account to use your food log tool and it is wonderful! It is so easy to use and now I can integrate my food log with my blog instead of logging it elsewhere. Thank you!
