Tracking measurements app?



Recommended Posts

Does anyone know of an app that will allow you to input and track changes in your body measurements? I want o be able to see the changes in my body with measurements.

How does everyone else do it. At the moment I'm just writing it in a table.

I'ld like one a little more high tech.

Thanks xx

Apparently the only measurements you can keep up with in MyFitnessPal is neck, waist & hips. Unless I'm just not doing it correctly. I use an app called "Notes" on my iPhone. I store all kinds of lists and info in there. It's a really simple but useful app. Hope this helps.

If you go to check in, then measurements, there is an option to "track additional". You can add whatever you'd like! :)

I haven't used MFP in a while. I can't seem to find where to "check in". Can you help?

Never mind. I went online and found it. I was trying to use my phone and it didn't have that option on there. Thanks anyway!

I also use an app called body tracker. I really like it. It allows you to add a progress picture for each time you do your measurements so that you can compare. It's a pretty awesome app.

I also use BodyCompare. It allows you to use your phone to take pictures on a delayed setting so you can take pictures of your self. And then it lets you set up the pictures so you can do side-by-side pics and see the difference.

Stupid question..... But what should I measure?

My doc recommended thighs, hips, stomach, chest and arms.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
