So, after my "incident" a few months ago, a nurse entered my room and informed me I'm diabetic. I'm now looking for a good app for my Kindle that will show me carb counts, for when I'm eating out.

Running search gives about a zillion hits and I would like to narrow the selection down just a bit. If any of you guys know of any good apps please let me know.
Thanks.

I think this will work on a Kindle.

^^ Thanks Danny!

www.myfitnesspal.com

Is also available for android. My wife and I both use it. Absolutely unbelievable database of foods with their breakdown.

Might also try My Fitness Pal. It will scan bar codes and give a complete breakdown of calories, carbs. etc. plus you can input your workout and it will give values for it. I used it to track protein to get my grams up a bit. Worked great.

FWIW, it's a huge shift in diet but many have turned heart disease and diabetes around by diet. Not an easy route but life changing and life extending.

A co-worker of mine with the same problem has hired a personal trainer.

He is really dropping the weight now. I have to give him credit. He get's up at 5 in the morning before work so he has time to work out. And he is right, that is about the only time you have the energy to do it!

Try this for fast food:
Android (I have this one):

iPhone (not the same program):

I also recommended watching the documentary, Forks over Knives.
Not political. Just factual.

I to am working out each day at around 5:00am. I didn't start out very heavy to begin with (170-175), and am just now back up to 157 lb.s after going well below that. My diabetes nurse-counselor stated "Lawdog, I don't get to ever tell this to people, but boy,you need to gain some weight!"
To me that sounded like a ringing endorsement for gobbling up some chocolate-covered-twinkle-dinkies but she seems to think I just need larger portions of healthful foods. Nurses........

Thank you all so much for the app suggestions. I will be getting a few of them and It's always nice to learn from the experiences of others who have been there.
Again, thank you.
