Anyone have any suggestions for a site similar to GC, but for fitness? Also, any idea about healthy eating websites? I need something to help me track what I eat, and since I have a technology addiction, I think a web-based something would be a good thing. Free is preferred!

sparkpeople.com is awesome. There are food trackers, different interest groups, like forums, based on your age, particular challenges, etc. You put in your goal weight and when you want to reach it and it tells you a calorie range to shoot for each day. You can track how much water you're drinking. It's a great site! And, totally free!

ETA: The food trackers have foods built in already so if you eat a McDonald's cheeseburger or something like that, brand name frozen foods, whatever, it has the calorie counts and nutrition info already in there. You can add things that aren't in there already if there's something you eat regularly. Different groups have different challenges, where you earn points for staying in your calorie range, drinking your water, exercising, etc., so there is some fun built in. The only downfall to the site is that you'll get several emails every day from them.

You can try http://caloriecount.about.com/ to track what you eat, what you earn and to ask questions.
