have you seen some of the new thoughts for logging emotions? I have an iphone so I don’t know what’s out there for droid…. one of them is called “happiness” and the other is “mood journal”. search for them in the app store and check them out!

I use an eating disorder specific app called Recovery Record. It’s an app developed in the UK, so the lingo used is a little different than in the US. Besides having a few minor hiccups – like no ability to respond to turning your phone sideways, or not being able to track online from a computer – I’ve found it very useful.

First, you can personalize the food tracking form to ask about your mood, feelings, where you ate and with whom, whether you restricted or purged, your desire to restrict or purge. It also has an open ended area where you can fill in your thoughts.

Secondly, it tracks this information in list form as well as in graphs/charts. So it’s easy to look back and see how your mood affected your eating.

Finally, you can allow your team of physicians/therapists to access your food tracker. This is helpful since it’s really easy to forget about bad eating days since they’re such habit for someone with an eating disorder. They can help identify correlations that we may not see.

I’ve only used it for a couple weeks, but so far I think it’s the best thing I’ve found. Download it for Apple or Android… http://recoveryrecord.com/
