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.

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
