Bariastic, MyFitness Pal or other app?



Recommended Posts

Ok, I just got my date, Tuesday, June 5. I've been doing a lazy version of Keto as my pre-op diet until now and have not been tracking my food, but I certainly will starting doing so the day after surgery. I know that Bariastic and MyFitness Pal are two of the most popular apps for food and activity tracking. However, are there any apps that store your information on the web and also have websites that allow you to enter all of your information as well? I love my phone, but I spend most of my time on a computer and it would be much easier for me (and my eyes) to be able to enter everything through a website as well as a phone?

My FitnessPal is a full website.....I use that more than the app....

The lose it APP is what I used post-op and since my surgery. It has a large food database and I love it. I have also tried My fitness pal and found it not as user friendly as LOSE IT. I installed and am using Bariastic for the reminders only.

I checked out both MyFitnessPal and LoseIt, and the annoying part is that both require subscriptions for the features I want. I'll stick with the free version of MyFitnessPal for now. Thanks for the help.

One more update: MyFitness Pal doesn't track Fiber or net carbs, even in the paid version. Total waste of time for me.

Chronometer has worked well for me when I was doing a Keto diet because it keeps track of Macros and Micros. Large food data base and also tracks Vitamin. No liquid tracking though.

I like Baritastic. It keeps track of Fluid intake, carbs, fat and Protein. It keeps track of weight loss and inches lost. They email me stats when I request them. And I have yet to scan something that doesn’t come up immediately. And if I ever do have that problem, it’s easy to input the stats quickly. And it syncs with my Fitbit, which is nice for me. It doesn’t track the macros and micros though, so if you’re looking to do that, another app or site is probably better for you. I haven’t tried the Chronometer one, but for me, I just really like Baritastic.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
