So you ate too much over the holidays. Your New Year’s Resolution is to lose weight, watch what you eat and get back in shape. Fatburgr is here to help.

I know, with a name like Fatburgr, they don’t sound very helpful, but they are. Their goal is to publish, online, the nutrition information for all of your favorite restaurants. In some cases, this will be easy for them, but other restaurants tend to keep the information close to the chest. If Fatburgr gets no response, or a canned PR response, they list the restaurant on the :( page.

You can search Fatburger for categories (burgers, shakes, etc) or by restaurant. In an effort to assuage every dieter, the results include calories, fat, carbs, and Weight Watchers points.

The most handy thing? They’ve got an iPhone application. You can now check on those calories, carbs, and points as you’re sitting in the drive-thru line at Sonic, waiting on your 850 calorie Banana Cream Pie Milkshake.
