I'm having difficulty finding a *free* application that will allow me to enter my own nutritional guidelines (high protein/low carb) and then report my progress against my daily food log. Which electronic application do you use?

I've looked at several and it seems like they all want to charge me a membership fee if I want a daily report that compares my intake with custom designed goals.

Would you please let me know what you use? If it's not on the list, then reply to this message after pressing the <Vote> button and let me know what you use. I will add to the list as we go along.

It will be interesting to see what everybody uses. Don't forget to hit the <Vote> button.

Much obliged,

I use "MyNetDiary" on my I-Pad2. It is fully loaded! Not rated very high because it costs $10 so many people are afraid to purchase it without knowing what they are getting.

Seems the free apps are the most popular.

Anyone that's using myfitnesspal can look at my diary. It's not always the best and don't use it as what you must do but I try. Feel free to friend me here and there. Same username.

Thanks to everyone for replying. I joined MyFitnessPal.com & you were all correct... it is easy to use. WayneF, I'm having the same trouble you are, but I suppose I can ignore the calorie thing? That's my plan anyway.

See you guys on MyFitnessPal.com!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
