Best App for tracking food intake



Recommended Posts

Hi All!

After a whole lot of ups and downs with my insurance company/surgical coordinator - I'm getting sleeves on Wednesday morning!!

Can you please tell me how you're tracking your food intake? Any great apps out there?

Thanks in advance!

Lauren

My fitness pal is what I use. You can even scan the items barcode and it will pop up and you can add it into your food. It's awesome

Myfitnesspal is awesome, seems to have most foods I can think of (even really rare stuff, like Costco-only brands) and as @SeriouslyChange said, will scan barcodes. It also integrates with the Bodymedia Fit, which I use to monitor my activity level.

I too like My fitness pal. The nutritionist at my pre-op program told us about it and I've been using it since September. I just had my surgery 2 weeks ago - very helpful tracking Protein, fats, carbs & calories.

Hi Lauren, I am also getting sleeved Wednesday morning. Isn't it exciting?! Myfitness pal is, although I've had trouble getting into on my PC in order to sink, etc. I've also used myplate on livingstrong.com Good luck and I hope you have a quick and smooth recovery.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
