Does anyone know of any iPhone or iPad apps to help with my food diary and weight tracker.

I use "My Fitness Pal". I love it!!

I also love my fitness pal!

Another vote for My Fitness Pal, though Spark People is also good and the social part is more robust on SP depending on what you want/need

My fittness pal as well. It's awesome!!

My fitness pal!

Sparkpeople.com is wonderful!

My fitness pal is great. I have found some of their blog posts good too. I have my sister and daughter linked on it so we can encourage each other. I definitely recommend it...very easy to track protein.

I used "loseit!" before "myfitnesspal" and really didn't want to switch at first. But everyone else was over on myfitnesspal and I wanted the community, so I made the switch. SO happy I did! The friends I've hooked up with there (mostly all from here!) are amazing and the support they give me on a daily and hourly basis is fantastic.

I'm also amazed at how extensive their food library is. I have scanned the barcodes of some very obscure foods, and been shocked to find they are already in the database.

I also love that I can enter any recipe at all, by hand or by URL, and it will give me detailed nutrition information based on the precise ingredients and quantities. There have been times when I thought an online recipe looked pretty good, but once I ran it through mfp I found either the fat, carbs, or sugar were out of line. That alone makes the app worth its weight in gold.

I have Lose It and love it. I like that I can adjust the calories down for sleeve level. Can you do that for My Fitness Pal? I tried it before and wasn't too thrilled with it. I should try it again.

@@FinallyFit50s, When I first tried to switch to myfitnesspal, I went running in the other direction all "nope nope nope not for me". But I finally got lonely all by myself over on Lose It and tried again, and the second time it took. I think it was just different, because once I decided to switch I found myself completely loving it. Part of the reason why I love it is because it integrates so seamlessly with my Fitbit activity tracker and Aria scale, Water tracking app (Waterlogged), and couch to 5k training app (C25K Free). It connects everything to everything and never duplicates info.

You can adjust your target calories - and target nutrients, target activity level, etc. - to whatever you want it to be. The only thing it WON'T do is automatically generate a post to your timeline (e.g., "anaxila completed her food and exercise diary for 3/29/2015", followed by a link to view my diary) if you take in fewer than 1000 calories. Everyone I'm friends with can still view my diary (something you can turn on or off), but it doesn't prompt them every day that I'm done and they can go look. It's an annoyance, and a relatively recent one that lots of bariatric users have been giving strong feedback about. I know some users make dummy calorie entries on their diaries (for example, adding "254 calories added to publish my log" under snacks), which is an option if the automatic feed entries are important to you. In my experience, this is the only drawback to the app and website.

My fitness pal. You can set reminders to notify you when to eat. This helps me even still since I don't ever feel hungry.

I love mynetdiary. It has an app for iPhone and iPad. You can also punch in your own recipes and it will give you nutritional info. I can also track weight, vitamins/meds, water intake, exercise, body measurements, and daily notes. I have been using it for a few years off and on now. I love it.

Thanks for all the great responses. I'm going to check them out this evening.
