Best Calorie And Nutrition Tracker?



Recommended Posts

I am doing a high protien diet while I wait to find out if I have been approved by my insurance for surgery and I was wondering what is the best online tracker of calories consumed with a complete run down of the nutrients consumed also? I really appreciate your suggestions!

MyFitnessPal is by far my favorite. There are tons of users from here on there as well - you can "friend" them and chat there also. Their food library is enormous, you can add custom foods and recipes, and it's really easy to use.

They have an app for smart phones as well...at least for the iPhone. I'm not sure about Droids. I use an app called Lose It. I really like it. I do use My Fitness Pal for their recipe feature. It allows you to add the ingredients of a homemade dish to find out what the nutrition stats are.

MyfitnessPal for me too. You can also add friends and see their diary which can help you get food ideas. They do have a driod version too.

I love the My Fitness Pal app.! You can actually scan a products bar code with the tap of a button then add the item to your daily menu (adjusting potion size accordingly!) I love the weekly summaries and the easy to read pie chart that shows o/o of carbs consumed throughout the day. It's keeping me accountable on my Pre-surg. meal plan. 

      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! 😞
