April 11, 201313 yr What's your favorite tracking app? I'm looking for a good app to track protein, calories, carbohydrates, and exercise. I've only used weight watchers so I have no idea what most people use! Thanks!
April 11, 201313 yr I'm a fan of Sparkpeople. It's free, like I think the others mentioned above are.
April 11, 201313 yr Author Was just looking at my fitness pal. Question. I looked up canned tuna. The only thing I saw was the information for 1 can serving. Say I have 2 oz, do I just have to manually calculate by breaking down how much each oz is? Either by looking at the label or the info in the tracker? Or is there another way to see how much would be in each oz with that app? I can't see a way. An app that would do that would be very convenient! I suppose the easiest way would be just to have half the can at 2.5 oz and just divide all the nutritional info by 2. I just don't want to get into the habit of eating more food than I would otherwise bc of the more convenient math
April 11, 201313 yr I use MyFitnessPal and pair it with my FitBit too. I have also used LoseIt! before and I really like it too but now I pretty much stick with MFP.
April 11, 201313 yr I got obsessive with MyFitPal and it was too much so now I just use weight tracker to show me my stats I no longer log my intake because they aren't set for bariatric patients and I didn't find it to be very accurate where exercise is concerned either
April 11, 201313 yr Also a devotee of MyFitnessPal. I pair that with my FitBit pedometer. Same here! I use MyFitnessPal (MFP) and a Fitbit One. Keeps me TOTALLY motivated every day (and I'm 11 months post-op!)

I have mine dialed in to what my NUT suggested. I have to measure or I know I would screw up so that works best for me.
April 13, 201313 yr I also use myfitnesspal and a fitbit. I love the combo. The great thing about my myfitnesspal phone app is that i can scan bar codes and it adds them to my food diary in about 2 seconds. Fun, convenient and motivating.
April 13, 201313 yr I just can't seem to get into MyFitnessPal. I love loseit. Does anyone else use this? Would like to add some friends. I am pondsofgold
