Steve's blog posting referring to Colm's blog entry mentioned The Hacker's Diet, a book which I have also read about 6 moths back and learned from. Although I've only lost a little weight - nothing like Colm's excellent progress - I've very easily managed to maintain my weight at its present level - despite my penchant for lard.
For variation on the theme, I use OpenOffice Calc rather than GNUPlot or Excel to track and graph my weight.
Even engineers have to eat, and whether you are overweight, underweight or just right, I'd highly recommend a read through The Hacker's Diet. It's a very light read (honestly! Despite any references to averages, means and other such statistical terminology) and certainly helped me to put eating, weight, metabolism and my body in context.
