You can enter foods that you cant find so long as you have the nutrition info. I use this site if I need help with nutrition info: Nutrition facts, calories in food, labels, nutritional information and analysis – NutritionData.com

It is really helpful in the beginning to track what you are eating until you get into a routine.

Hope that helps!!

I recently started logging my food intake and exercise on the Realize site as I was stuck... this has really helped me to see how much I am eating plus my doctor/nutritionist can log in to see my progress and give me feedback. Although I don't have a blog myself, there are many blogs out there to follow. My absolute favorite is Once Upon A Time...In the Land of cheese and Sunkist, they call Amy "the Oprah" of blogging. She is quite the inspiration. There is a community of bloggers who support one another. The group that I follow just had a get together in Chicago, that looked liked a lot of fun. They have over 50 women attend. That blog is located at B.O.O.B.S..

I keep a food log on my computer and as soon as I started as soon as I made the call to start the process. Since I am still pre-op it has been very helpful for me to be able to lay it all out and it is keeping me honest too.

I use a daily log on fatsecret.com. It sinks with my Droid. I have found it very helpful to log my food. This helps me track my Protein and calorie intake.

My favorite blog is theworldaccordingtoeggface Shelly has the best recipes.< /p>

I use the Lose It app on my iPhone. I LOVE it! I've tried Sparkpeople and Livestrong but didn't find them as user friendly. I log everything I eat...sort of!

www.livestrong.com/thedailyplate.com is where I log my food choices. If you want to see my food journaling, email me for my user name there.

I find the dailyplate to be the most comprehensive.. rarely do I have to add anything like I've had to at fitday or sparkpeople. It also has apps for blackberry, iphone and I think the droid now.

Most of the things you'll need to use at dailyplate are free.. I've used it for over a year at the free level and has met all my needs.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
