A lot of people on here use Myfitnesspal, this works for me. Never tried nutracheck so cannot compare. Myfitnesspal is a free download app, you could always try both and see what suits you best.

Thank you for your response I appreciate your feedback. Yes just downloaded it as a comparison.

Just had a quick look round and recoded breakfast. On both apps now. Nutracheck does have pictures so I found it to be slightly quicker. However it may be that it's just more familiar. I will continue with both in the meantime - thank you again. Have a good day πŸ‘

I have lost over 2 stone using the nutracheck site (on a computer rather than phone) and found it very helpful. I religiously logged everything I ate for 6 months - have only recently stopped as too busy and the computer wasn't working for a bit, but it does help to have the pictures and familiar brands at your fingertips. It costs more than MyfitnessPal (which I haven't tried), but I felt it was worth it.

The supporting forum is not as good as this one though - a lot of the people I started with are no longer there, and they are mostly younger than me with different issues to discuss, so I prefer to chat on Health Unlocked.

Thank you DD I am going to try both side by side there's no harm. Like you I like the photos quick and easy.

I don't bother with the chat site - on Nutracheck had a quick look.

Only use Nutracheck for calorie counting and exercise. I haven't got it on my computer do it all from my phone.

Enjoy your day and thankyou 😊

HI Janewatson,

You might like to look at the results of a survey that was undertaken earlier in the year about apps:

Thanks for the info Lowcal i appreciate it. Just checked 22 Nuracheck opposed to 222.

I have come to the conclusion I believe its what works for you as an individual.

Thank you 😊

I use S Health that came on my Samsung but have to be honest love it. I need to lose a few stone but as well as that my daughter is borderline so I'm trying to encourage her to increase her activity levels and this app let's me send her challenges.
