Keeping track of how you are doing with 10 recommended foods and 5 foods to avoid can be tricky. I have been working on an Excel file to use as a tracker. I am not sure if I will print it out and put it on my refrigerator or try to remember to add to it on my computer.

Actually, I am pretty good at tracking what I eat at MyFitnessPal, so I am going to try to do it electronically. I added calculations where I could to cut down on what has to be done by hand.  Working with Excel formulas is one of those things that helps keep my brain active. The foods for which the basis of the points are all expressed by the week were fairly easy, but I am still struggling with the ones that are expressed by the day or the month or even less specific.

Eventually, I would like to make this into a web-based and iPhone app.

Here is v1:  MIND diet tracker  

If you use the tracker, please let me know how this works for you and send me suggestions, if you have them.
