Anyone using this software on their Mac? If so, would you recommend it?

Baring that, does anyone know of any good software for Macintosh or online that does a good job of recording your nutrition, exercise and BG levels? Auto download from my one touch ultra would be nice, be not needed.

I don't own a Mac but I did find this site doing a google search.

None of the minimed stuff works on macs which dissappointed me....I called them and asked why "Most of the people in the world use windows based computers" Exactly the answer I got. Yeah, I have 2 macs, all I use, all I'll ever use.

Yep type 2 Mac user here, even though most people use window based machines the tide is slowly turning, a lot more people are evolving into Mac users. I remember when I bought my first Mac Performa way back in '95 finding any type of software for a Mac was a great and noble challenge.

so what do you guys use for tracking BG and nutrition?

I've used fitday.com and calorieking, but neither have options for BG. Health Engage Diabetes looks interesting as it's Mac based, reads meters and purports to be diabetes and nutrition tool, but I'm curious if anyone has used it.

I use Bootcamp on my macbook to upload my info.

I also use Diabetes Logbook X.
