Most of us use MyFitnessPal. Some use Lose It.

IMO, My Fitness Pal is the easiest app to use. It tracks Protein, carbs, etc and you can customize the calorie count and protein goals on the website. It also has a way to track your exercise and activity level. I use MFP in conjunction with my Fit Bit. They work well together to give a realistic picture of what you're eating and burning daily. I'm Lissa912 on there if you want to add me as a friend. :)

I use Livestrong (MyPlate). I find it's got pretty much the same features as MyFitnessPal, but they have a much larger food database. I could never find all my foods in FitnessPal.

I love my fitness pal! I use it with my fitbit and I have the wifi scale that is made by the fitbit people. It really keeps me on track , and I have lots of very supportive and motivating friends from this site! I used to use the live strong app, and sometimes reference it if I can't find a food on myfitness pal, but I like the overall interface better in my fitness pal. Feel free to add me- docangtx12

My nutritionist told me to use fit day because it has a pie chart of Protein, carbs, and etc. easy to look at.

I'm going to start using it tomorrow along with myfitness pal to jump start my weight loss again.

I have the Bodymedia band and I use their program because it tracks my calories out, steps taken and even tells me where my intensity was highest. And it tracks my sleep and the quality. Which is huge as far as weight loss goes. We need to make sure we have enough sleep to allow our bodies to rest and recovery from exercise. So I put in my intake and it tells me what my caloric deficit is.

The best part is...I got it for a song and dance on eBay. Lol. I love a bargain. My next purchase for this bit of technology...I can't wait to buy a smaller band!!

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
