Most of us use MyFitnessPal. Some use Lose It.

There is a Forum under Fitness & Exercise covering this. Most people use MyFitnessPal.com.

IMO, My Fitness Pal is the easiest app to use. It tracks Protein, carbs, etc and you can customize the calorie count and protein goals on the website. It also has a way to track your exercise and activity level. I use MFP in conjunction with my Fit Bit. They work well together to give a realistic picture of what you're eating and burning daily. I'm Lissa912 on there if you want to add me as a friend. :)

I use Livestrong (MyPlate). I find it's got pretty much the same features as MyFitnessPal, but they have a much larger food database. I could never find all my foods in FitnessPal.

I love my fitness pal! I use it with my fitbit and I have the wifi scale that is made by the fitbit people. It really keeps me on track , and I have lots of very supportive and motivating friends from this site! I used to use the live strong app, and sometimes reference it if I can't find a food on myfitness pal, but I like the overall interface better in my fitness pal. Feel free to add me- docangtx12

My nutritionist told me to use fit day because it has a pie chart of Protein, carbs, and etc. easy to look at.

I'm going to start using it tomorrow along with myfitness pal to jump start my weight loss again.

I have the Bodymedia band and I use their program because it tracks my calories out, steps taken and even tells me where my intensity was highest. And it tracks my sleep and the quality. Which is huge as far as weight loss goes. We need to make sure we have enough sleep to allow our bodies to rest and recovery from exercise. So I put in my intake and it tells me what my caloric deficit is.

The best part is...I got it for a song and dance on eBay. Lol. I love a bargain. My next purchase for this bit of technology...I can't wait to buy a smaller band!!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
