Thought I'd post a quick hello from a newbie. I met with my surgeon on 7/13 and have just started the three-month diet/exercise program required for insurance. The family is on board and DH is going to join me in the diet program (although he won't be giving up caffeine, the old coot!).

Does anyone out there have any specific iPhone apps that they use to help keep track of diet and/or exercise?

Can't wait to meet others here!

Welcome and congratulations! This forum has helped me immensely. I use the sparkpeople iphone app to track stuff, but I am sure there are others out there. I use sparkpeople.com for the indepth stuff and the iphone app for tracking water and little things.

I use lose it to track food and weight and I use mapmyrun for exercise (its good for walking and biking too) it tells you how long, how far and lots of other stuff.

I have two one is Livestrong.com, which is great and then the one with my bodybugg which is apexfitness.com. Livestrong is free so good luck!

I loved the free app called "Lose It." It let you set loss goals, daily calorie intake, and input your RMR/BMR.

Then you add foods and activity from their food and exercise bank which was really really extensive. You could also add custom foods and exercise.

I removed it from my phone and now use LapBand.com and Skinnyr.com to track my weight loss as I am not needing to really focus on my activity and calories as much now.

I downloaded the LiveStrong app and I really like it! It seems to do everything that I need as far as diet and fitness.

Thanks!
