How do you Track/Journal?

[GACaldwell 112]

Hi All!

A little over 2 months out and I've hit my first stall. I'm wondering how you all track your food/calories/fitness? I've used sparkpeople before but im terrible at remembering to track anything once I leave work.

I've used fitday.com (no good phone app, just on laptop) every day since 2009 (lap band surgery was in 09), and I just recently had a sleeve revision. I wish it had a good app, but I like it because it has graphs, pie charts and stats that I love to "study" through the years.

I track everything I put in my mouth: Calories, carbs, fats. They have a really good database and I input all the foods I buy at the grocery store. I also put in my exercise, and in my journal there I put in any changes of my day (like if I have a cold, if the dr. changes my meds). It's really an invaluable tool and I find it to be "calming", strange maybe?

I use the Lose It app It was recommended by my surgeon's office and they had me track my Protein on it for like 6 months prior to surgery. It is very user friendly.

I use myfitnesspal. They have an app but I tend to use the website much more. I'll often know in advance what I am going to eat each day, so I just pre-log it in the morning before I head to work.

I use the myfitnesspal app everyday. It makes it super easy to track your foods. And its free. I did pay for the advanced version so I could set Protein and carb goals.

I use the Baritastic app. It is really great. You can track everything including Protein, calories, carbs, Water intake, etc. It also has vitamin/mineral supplement reminders, and you can track your weight loss and measurements. It pretty much has everything!

I use MyFitnessPal, I like the mobile app and I like that it syncs with my Fitbit. I also use MapMyWalk, which integrates with MFP as well.
