I love myfitnesspal. I think I'm actually addicted to logging. It's definitely a way for me to feel in control. I also love the forums over there.

My fitness pal. Love it!!!! The psych doctor I had to see prior to surgery suggested it and said he uses it everyday. Suggested that I use it for the rest of my life. It helps me keep on track , keeps track of my calories as well as my Protein and Fluid intake. Also tracks exercise! LOVE it!

I have such a hard time getting in all my liquids.... Water Logged is a good app to track water intake.

I use MFP and fitbit. I really like them together. We have an aria scale by fitbit too that syncs to MFP, together they keep me on track. I have used Lose it in the past and really like it too but MFP is what I have been using since surgery

I started using My Fitness Pal about a month ago and LOVE IT! I am going to see my doctor today for a follow-up, and I love that I can print off the diary so that the doctor can review it - it tracks calories and protein!!

I use myfitnesspal and runtastic together, and a heart rate monitor wrist watch.

But I also really like LoseIt but I don't want to pay $39.99 for the ability to log my Water, etc. I would rather use LoseIt, but like I said, I just use the lite version...

I am addicted to myfitnesspal too though, I love everything even my emergen-c.

I also use My Fitness Pal and Fitbit. To me, they are 2 halves of a whole. I love them! It really helps me to see what constitutes a "good" and a "bad" day. The combination of the 2 proved to me that if I upped my calories occasionally, I often lose weight the next day. Interesting revelation to me.

For the record , I was never able to keep with a food diary in the past but i wouldn't be without it now. They are great accountability tools.

I agree Janet, I was told when I had diabetes (reversed it with the lap-band though) to keep a food diary. Well, it was soooo hard to do before with just paper and stuff (this was in 2008).

So when I got on nutrisystem last year (I did it for almost a year) I used their iphone app to record stuff and got HOOKED.

When I quit nutrisystem, I was so used to it that I can't really live without one now. The control freak in me loves knowing exactly what and how much of every little thing is going into my body. :)

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
