Weight/diet tracker app for Itouch?



Recommended Posts

Does anyone use a diet tracker app with an Itouch or I phone?

I have seen a few but not sure which one is best for us?

Any ideas gratefully recieved.

I use Livestrong, it's OK, but I am presurgery and haven't been counting carbs. I haven't figured out how to get it to show a total carb count or Protein count for the day.

I use fatsecret and LOVE it!... It is a free ap and you can also access it online free. I highly recommend it.

I use Myfitnesspal but I don't know if they have and "i" app. I'm going to check it out for my new iPhone, or else I'll just get there through the browser. I think it's the easiest of all the trackers.

myfitnesspal has a free Iphone/Itouch/Ipod app, I use it and love it. I used all the other ones out there, and I love, love, love that I don't have to sync my data from my Iphone to the web version, it all translates over on it's own.

Plus, I have never found one food or drink item that myfitnesspal didn't have in their database like many of the tracking websites that I tried and got frustrated with pretty quickly.

Thanks for the tips - I'll check them out.

I did find Fitnesspal, but you have to be online to update, and we don't have Wifi at home, so updating is a fiddle, but will compare and see what they are like.

I use Nutrition Menu; very good, you can journal on there too, record your weights, exercise, the whole deal!

I've tried just about everything and am using Lose It right now. Very fast to add new foods and you can choose which nutritional values to track. It also tells me how many calories I'm under for the day which is helpful since I'm still in liquides and getting enough in is a problem for me.

I think they all have pretty much the same features. Mine doesn't support PC tracking which was nice but I'm getting along just fine with only the iPhone for now.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
