Starting my seventh week since being sleeved - Looking for food tracking apps



Recommended Posts

I starting my seventh week since being sleeved and I'm seeing some significant changes. I've dropped 54 lbs since my pre-op weigh-in and 73 lbs from my high weight when I made my decision to start down this path. I'm also seeing some slowing in the decline of my quick weight loss of the first of the few weeks as I've moved into regular foods. If only it would continue but I understand the process. I'm beginning to add some exercise into my routine (3-5 mile walks) so I know this will help my metabolism.

I'm using an app for my Blackberry to track the foods I eat called Calorie Counter by Fat Secret. It gives me Protein counts and seems to have almost every kind of food out there. Any one try this app or other apps? Tips for tracking? I'm always looking for tips and this forum seems to have a lot of motavated and creative people.

I use Myfitnesspal.com as well, and I have the app on my Droid X. I love it. At first I just wrote down everything I ate in a notebook, but this is soooo much easier. I love being able to track calories, Protein, carbs, sugar, everything, and you can go back to any date, even look at graphs. It also has a thing where you can scan barcodes and it puts the info in, I have only come across a few foods that it didn't find.

I just got an update to my Calorie Counter app and now it has ADS on the screen! I hate spam. I checked out the app you all recommended and they don't have it for Blackberry so I'll have to wait but it looks good.

I love myfitnesspal.com on my DroidX.

I downloaded on my wife's EVO. It looks pretty good.

I started using myfitnesspal on the recommendation of others on this Board and I love it too! It does have a Blackberry app now too. It's very easy to use.

I use Tap & Track on the iPhone. Very helpful app. It comes with a database, the ability to add custom foods, restaurant nutritional data, etc. Tracks weight, Protein, calories, carbs, everything but Water. It charts your info too.

      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?

      April Surgery
      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! 😞
