Fitday is a easy site to work with.  It allows you to enter your food intake and physical activities so that you can balance them allowing you to set nutrition and/or weight goals.  It also has a wonderful feature that calculates your nutritional values.  You can individualize your account so that it keeps track of a particular dietary need.  You can easily balance the percentage of fat vs. protein and carbohydrates or maybe you want to make sure your calcium intake is on target.  It also allows printable reports.  I use this site frequently.
