BariatricPal is now an Authorized Escali Scale Distributor!
Finally17 replied to Alex Brecher's topic in Food and Nutrition
And based on other comment threads here, how and when do we use the scale versus measuring cups/spoons? Just trying to justify necessity. -

Which “On the Go” Helpers Do You Use?
Finally17 replied to Alex Brecher's topic in Food and Nutrition
Just saw Inspire has a bottle with 3 compartments: one for water, one for protein powder, and a sectioned one for supplements, i.e., vitamins, meds. Cost is $14.99. I'm pre op, but wondering if this would be a good choice to buy; or are there others I should consider. -
New BariatricPal Tracking App! What Features Do You Want?
Finally17 replied to Alex Brecher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I agree with so many of the suggestions provided. Personally, I use LoseIt and like it, but it's not specific to bariatric tracking. It has a seaech for foods in general; once you've developed a shake recipe, for example, you can go to your favorites and find it. If youre searching for a brand name, you can look in Supermarkets or Restaurants to find it. New ap needs a way to update foods and menus as changes are made. I'm still pre op, but want ways to be successful: when to take vitamins, medications with a reminder signal. Place to record weight, measurements with a graph to see visual. Basically I would say to use what LoseIt has, improve upon it, and make it bariatric specific. Thanks for asking for our input[emoji4] -
Just had this done today, and Dr found I have a hiatal hernia. Will this be a problem with Sleeve surgery, or will Dr just fix that at the same time?

Best food/water tracking app
Finally17 replied to Arthur Dent's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I use Lose It ap to track food and exercise...don't know about water -
The only things I have remaining are EGD and barium swallow, and those will be completed by the the end of May. I meet with surgeon mid-June, and surgery is scheduled for Aug. 2. Anyone else in a similar situation?

Thanks so much😊

Im still pre-op, surgery scheduled for Aug 2. Im going on a cruise in June. I would appreciate any suggestions from those who have experienced this. Im not eating any bread, drinking any alcohol or soda. Advice please?

Thanks for your advise

I'm pre-op. I just made cloud bread today and I like it. Since it has cream cheese in it, is it allowed post-op?
-
Thanks for the feedback😊

Does the bread need to be refrigerated?

I used 1/3 fat cream cheese, but I may try the Greek yogurt sometime.
