Best food tracking sites/apps?



Recommended Posts

Does anyone have a favorite site to track food and exercise? I've used Sparkpeople in the past, but I'm wondering if there are any better ones out there.

Extra points for a site that has an mobile/iphone version as well!

I use this one too because it's also an iPhone app :frown:. It's very user friendly, intuitive, and thorough with tracking food, exercise, and Water consumption then adjusting calories accordingly as well as a full run down of your nutritional intake. Also it graphs your weight and measurements toward your goal.

It also has a pretty comprehensive food database. I have yet to not find anything that I've eaten in the food search. If you should come across something that's not already there you can update it with your own additions.

I love my LoseIt! on my iphone. I also use an app Runkeeper to track my walks/distance/speed and another app called gym buddy to track my gym workouts. Its all on my iphone along with my workout music, did I mention I love that phone LOL

I've been using fitday off and on for years. It's user friendly and I like that it's easily customizable.

I use calorie counter on my droid. It has a massive data base with restaurants, store brand and name brand foods. It tracks my weight loss and goal on a graph. Tracks excersize and calories in/calories out. It also tracks Protein, carbs, ww points, fat and a ton of other stuff u can customize to track for a daily goal. And u can compare days too. When I search for something it tells me what percentage of my daily calories it is and the full nutritional profile. And did I mention it has a scanner that makes grocery shopping a breeze? And it syncs with a web site that is awesome. Oh and did I mention its all free? I love this app!! Sorry for being so choppy. I'm typing on my phone cause hubbub and I r in Vegas

hi,

i use the daily burn food scanner for iphone. you can even scan the barcode of the items that you eat to get the nutritional information and add it to favorites.

if you have a mac computer you can also sync it on that.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
