Food journal apps?



Recommended Posts

I have not been keeping a food journal . I am now moving into my modified foods diet and I want to keep track of my food intake. Does anyone use a food journal app they use they really like? I downloaded Bariastic but my dr does not participate so it's kind of useless. Any recommendations? Thanks!

Baritastic. food, Water, weight, tracks everything you need and is designed for bariatric patients.

I know it doesn't connect with your doc but I'd tell them too bad and that you can show them when you have appointments. Baritastic is that good.

Depends on how much detail you want. MyFitnessPal seems to be quite popular. I personally prefer CRON-O-meter.

I use MyFitnessPal. I should probably give Baritastic a second go, but I much preferred MyFitnessPal. I don't know if I've ever come across a food on there that it didn't have in it's database, you can track Water, exercise, as well as weight, measurements, etc. You can change your goal macros and weight loss goals. It's quite user friendly.

My name is SorryNameTaken on there if you decide to use it and want a fellow pal on there!

I use Baritastic. Super user friendly, and it really doesn't matter if it doesn't connect to your doctor.

I was using fitness pal for sometime but I ended up switching to Carb Manager and I love it. Its more visual and cleaner looking. If you get the premium version you can connect your fitbit or apple watch to it too.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
