Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Does anyone use an app on their phone?



Recommended Posts

I am looking for a good app to track my Water, Protein, exercise etc. I would like it to be more specific to WLS. I tried fitday, but it makes my brain nervous because it tells you how many calories you can have for the day, well we all know we aren't eating anywhere near that amount :-) I am concerned about my protein intake though.

Thank you!

MyFitnessPal is hugely popular, and integrates with lots of other apps. Fitbit also.

The App Store has quite a few new ones that actually track Water, Vitamins, medication etc. I use my fitness pal, but I am not tracking water etc. it just has the most extensive database of food, I don't pay that much attention to the calories as the nutrition and volume

Sadly, I ended up purchasing a journal because I could not find an app that just everything I wanted. I liked MyFitnessPal, but you cannot adjust the grams of Protein only select a percentage.

I purchase my journal at Barnes & Noble and love it. It's titled "Diet Minder", about 6" X 9", spiral bound and there are two pages for every day. You start by writing the date and day # (this is nice for preop diet), there are categories for Breakfast, snack, lunch, Snack, dinner and Snack, you can track calories, fat grams, carbs, Fiber and Protein. There are totals for each meal, then a daily total for each category. There is also a section each day where you can record vitamins/supplements and physical activity.

Anyway, may be old school writing everything down, but I love it.

I use WaterYourBody... You can set how many Oz or ml or whatever you're measuring and it sends me reminders when I haven't been getting my fluids in.

      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.
