Carb Manager—Keto Diet Tracker 4+

Carb manager got me back on track

I started doing Keto recipes from the 4th January 21. I didn’t track my macros. After losing 6 kilo’s in 3 weeks, I started to level out and not lose any more weight, that lasted 10 days. I down loaded various Keto apps but settled on Carb Manager. I started tracking my food/drink intake in line with the macro limits outlined by Carb Manager to achieve my weight goal. I instantly got back on track and have lost weight every day since which has been 10 days since tracking my macros. I am using the free version of the app and I have found it fantastic. It can be time consuming imputing all your ingredients for a recipe so I may upgrade. If not for this, then just as a thank you for putting such a great tool to market for people to start their health journey. I think Carb Manager is an awesome app. Shane Astwood - Cairns Australia.

So disappointed this great app has been ruined

Can’t tell you how much I now hate this once brilliant app. It takes forever to load recipes and then only loads a few. Half the time it won’t load anything. It’s glitchy, clunky and hard to use. It was simple and easy before. Now it’s all bells and whistles and doesn’t work half as well. The developers say You can delete ingredients from recipes but users say it doesn’t work - it used to be easy and simple. If you search for say breakfast recipes you get a few options but not all so you have to know exactly what your wanting and search for it specifically. You can’t sort recipes in the search according to carb content. When searching for recipes they go over the screen so you have to scroll sideways as well as down. But really - why when I search breakfast can’t I just get all breakfasts? I used to use this app every day. Now I avoid it and go to alternatives first. I won’t be repurchasing this app unless they restore some of its previous simple beauty. Listen to your users and go back to the previous cm6.

This is excellent even if you don’t count carbohydrates.

I’m actually on a high carbohydrate/low fat vegetarian diet. I regard any diet to be a fad diet if proponents of it regard it as best. And the low carbohydrate/high fat ketogenic diet definitely falls into that category.

I think that there’s a large number of perfectly acceptable diets including the ketogenic one.

I don’t normally count calories or major food components such as fats, carbohydrates and protein.

I downloaded this App just out of interest to see what the composition of my diet actually is, using it just for a few days. I’d guessed previously that my diet is 70:20:10 carbohydrate:protein:fat (and it will be interesting to see what it actually is) but it’s very easy to use with extra features including being able to include exercise calories, so I may continue using it.

The premium version is of no interest to me - why would I be interested in ketogenic meals? According to the ketogenic crowd on a high carbohydrate diet I ought to be fat, diabetic and constantly hungry. But I’m not - to all three. If anything, my problem is that I’m underweight and not hungry enough to eat sufficient food for my needs.
