Opinions wanted! What's the best iPhone app for food journaling?



Recommended Posts

I've got LoseIt and SparkPeople, but I don't use them currently. I need to start journaling because I think it would help me immensely. I need it to be on my phone because otherwise I will forget to track it.

Now that I'm ready to dive in, which app do you like AND USE? I need it to be one that I know folks have success with and can like enough to keep doing it.

So, what iPhone apps do you all successfully use to lose?! :smile:

BTW, I already use dailymile (online) and the RunKeeper app to track my fitness.

Thanks in advance!

I love the dailyplate app for the iPhone (think it's called Livestrong)...I use dailyplate.com on my PC, and this syncs right up so I have my info handy and updated whereever I am. I use it to track both my calories and my activity....I'm seriously addicted.

      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.
