Ap for Iphone to Track Nutrition

[jennypenny 6]

I am a newbie, only 5 days post band. Right now I'm still home the majority of the time, so it's easy to write down and keep track of my Protein, calories, fat, etc. What I'm wondering is if anyone knows of a good Ap for the Iphone to keep track when I'm out and about. I know there are many, but I'd like a suggestion.

Also, I am getting so much information about what is most important to pay attention to - calories? fat? sugar? I know that we have to have aprox. 60 grams of Protein, but feel a little overwhelmed by what else I need to be focused on.

I use myfitnesspal...it's a free app for iphone and it's also online....if I'm not at home and need to track what I'm eating, I can do it on the phone and then see it all online when I'm at a computer. It tracks everything for you and you can print out reports of your eating, exercising, etc. Pretty easy to use too.

Right now focus on getting your Protein first....calories and portion sizes become paramount once you start eating real food. (At least that's what my nutritionist said, focus on protein now and soon enough it will be about how much and what you eat.)

Good luck!!

I've been using calorie counter by fat secret and it's really great!

I don't have an IPhone. I have an Android. I went to the marketplace and searched "food journal" and it came up with several pages of apps. I use mylapbandjourney and don't bother doing it on my phone. I just remember everything and log it when i get home.

I use MyNetDiary -Pro. Can input foods you eat. Has a very large database of available foods. Can scan the barcode on packaged items to load the nutritional values.

You can also enter your daily exercises, manually or use the large data base for that too. Set goals, enter you weight, display charts and graphs for daily progress, etc, etc. etc.

MyFitnessPal just upgraded and you can scan bar codes to upload nutrition info too! It's a free app and very user friendly.

I use myfitnesspal and my fitbit... I do feel though for tracking food myfitnesspal is the best since it has a HUGE database. I have talked a few of my friends to sign up but no one is following through so all I see all day is my postings... so sad.. lol. Would love new friends to help encourage me! Saxypanda is my ID on there =)
