Whats the best inexpensive or free app for tracking diet?
I am not putting on weight and looked into it and have found I am not getting near enough protein.
I'm not concerned about steps and exercise details.
It would be nice to have an app that has food choices built in. The simpler the better.
Thanks. There's a lot of good info in this forum.

Myfitnesspal? Wife used weightwatchers years ago, it's a different goal but you could scan products or input nutrition info. When I was training in college I just used a 2 tally books, one for food the other for my workouts. I always found it easier to pencil in than worry about my phone. If you are trying to put on some weight, are you using any supplements? I always found it hard to "eat" enough protein despite my fast metabolism

Another vote for myfitnesspal.com. Tracks protein, carbs, salt, fats, etc. easy to use and has tons of preloaded brand name foods as well as generic values for  say a "ham and cheese sandwich". Get yourself a CHEAP generic tablet and make it you nutrition and workout diary. Best of luck,

I'll make it three votes for Myfitnesspal.  Free to download and very easy to use.

MyFitnessPal. The app itself is pretty good and you can also use it via their site which comes in handy at least for me since depending on my work location I don't always have cell signal but always have access to computer.

Free version works plenty fine for most people but the paid version (50/yr I think?) adds a lot of features for more advanced users. I've tried most of them but always come back to MFP.
