What Apps do you use to track your daily intake etc?



Recommended Posts

Hi all! Just doing some research, I really need to track what I put in my mouth! I've been slacking, I see lots of different choices. Does anyone have a favorite Iphone app they use?

Ok I don't have any apps that I us to keep track of what I eat but if you are looking for a runnin app. Zmbies, Run 5k or Zombies, Run full app is a great app.

Its a story while you run and it motivates you by having zombies chase you. You can hear them groanng and breathing as they get closer to you.

The k version will train you to do a 5k in 8 weeks. 3 runs a week.

I am now on the full version.

Sorry I know this doesn't help you with your question but you said you were slacking and getting out and moving will help as well.

I use My Fitness Pal. It not only tracks your intake, but also your output (exercise). What I like is you can adjust some of the daily goals-for me it was tracking the Protein. I really like the nutritional summary-it helps me see what basic nutrients I may be lacking so I can change my focus.

My Fitness Pal also integrates with other apps

My fitness pal as well. But my dr has me doing the south beach diet so I'm really not tracking calories. So I have been using a good old fashion little note book.

I was thinking of following South Beach, how long have you been following it and do you think it works well for us? I got an offer in email today for a South Beach book free with $4.95 shipping so I thought I would look into it.

I have my fitness pal, Fitday mobile and My Net Diary Pro, and the last one is the one I use consistently and the one I find easiest to use. It tracks everything and has an easy to use bar code scanner and recipe entering feature. It tracks calories, Protein, fat and carbs and you can set goals and it also tracks output. My Net Diary is the least annoying and most complete one I have found. I paid for it once and it also downloaded onto my ipad and is accessible online as well.

I have been using My Fitness Pal. It integrates well with the FitBit thingy and tracks everything I need to track. I use it on my laptop but I also have it on my iPhone.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
