I Initially used the my fitness pal app, but I switched to LoseIt about a week and a half ago. I was really disappointed that my fitness pal did not track fluids in ounces and the only option was cups. It looks like users have been requesting for them to add ounces for a few years without them doing that simple addition. Under Armor bought out my fitness pal and their premium rate is $50 a year. I tried LoseIt and liked it a lot. I decided to upgrade to the premium which was $30/year through iTunes. You can set goals for steps, hydration, measurements, nutrients and many other things. I just liked it and it was easier to use for me than MyFitness Pal. The free version is good too but I like the upgrades of the premium version.

I have been using the free MFP app but have a problem with it. I am having to say I am 80 lbs lighter and 5 inches shorter than I actually am so it will calculate the amount of calories that I (and my NUT) want me to eat. Anyone else using the free app? Do I have to pay for the premium version to avoid this?

The lose it app also calculated my daily calories too high, but I upgraded to the premium and it would let me put in whatever calories I wanted. Actually, I had to take their daily calories and either subtract how much I wanted her and how much I wanted to make it correct. I'm not sure if it allows you to do that in the free version, but like you that was another thing I didn't like in my fitness pal. I just thought $50 was too much to pay for the premium upgrade for my fitness pal .

Baritastic is for those who are going to or have had bariatric surgery. No weird changing of settings because you need lower nutrition requirements. I like it so far.

Sparkpeople, but the only other one I've ever tried was myfitnesspal.

      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?
