Best Android Apps for Tracking Food, Exercise, and Weight Loss

This discussion is about finding the best Android apps to help track food, exercise, and body changes, especially for those aiming to lose weight and manage ostomy output. The goal is to find a way to minimize night-time leaks when the pouch isn't hanging down. Here are some helpful suggestions and insights shared by others:

1. App Recommendations:
- MapMyFitness by Under Armour: This app allows you to log exercise, food, and weight all in one place.
- Nutritionix Track: Known for its large food database and automatic nutrient calculations, this app is available for Android users.

2. Manual Tracking Alternative:
- Some people prefer using a simple notebook or spreadsheet. This method can be just as effective, allowing you to customize data fields, such as specific notes on output, without the need to learn a new app.

3. Eating Patterns to Cut Night-Time Output:
- Consider limiting or eliminating food intake during the late evening or night.
- One person found success with a "Japanese approach," which involves having smaller, earlier meals. Keep in mind that digestion speed varies, so adjust your meal timing to suit your stoma type, whether it's an ileostomy or colostomy.

4. General Weight-Loss Advice:
- Focus on eating smaller portions and maintaining regular exercise.
- Choose a tracking method, whether it's an app or paper, that you will consistently use. Consistency is key to success.
