Best food tracking sites/apps?



Recommended Posts

Does anyone have a favorite site to track food and exercise? I've used Sparkpeople in the past, but I'm wondering if there are any better ones out there.

Extra points for a site that has an mobile/iphone version as well!

I like myfitnesspal.com

free

I use this one too because it's also an iPhone app :frown:. It's very user friendly, intuitive, and thorough with tracking food, exercise, and Water consumption then adjusting calories accordingly as well as a full run down of your nutritional intake. Also it graphs your weight and measurements toward your goal.

It also has a pretty comprehensive food database. I have yet to not find anything that I've eaten in the food search. If you should come across something that's not already there you can update it with your own additions.

I love my LoseIt! on my iphone. I also use an app Runkeeper to track my walks/distance/speed and another app called gym buddy to track my gym workouts. Its all on my iphone along with my workout music, did I mention I love that phone LOL

I've been using fitday off and on for years. It's user friendly and I like that it's easily customizable.

I use calorie counter on my droid. It has a massive data base with restaurants, store brand and name brand foods. It tracks my weight loss and goal on a graph. Tracks excersize and calories in/calories out. It also tracks Protein, carbs, ww points, fat and a ton of other stuff u can customize to track for a daily goal. And u can compare days too. When I search for something it tells me what percentage of my daily calories it is and the full nutritional profile. And did I mention it has a scanner that makes grocery shopping a breeze? And it syncs with a web site that is awesome. Oh and did I mention its all free? I love this app!! Sorry for being so choppy. I'm typing on my phone cause hubbub and I r in Vegas

I started using myfitnesspal last week and it's awesome. I can also use it from my IPhone. Try it, you'll like it, and its free.

hi,

i use the daily burn food scanner for iphone. you can even scan the barcode of the items that you eat to get the nutritional information and add it to favorites.

if you have a mac computer you can also sync it on that.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
