There are literally thousands of foods and exercises already in the database. You can add and edit both. You can do it on your PC or smart phone but most importantly, there is a wonderfully supportive community on MFP, including a group for lapbanders.

I have used fitday.com and Sparkpeople. I am using sparkpeople now because they off so much for free!! You can get meal plans exercise plans just everything.

I love Sparkpeople.com but I can't compare between it and any other because I've never used any other online weight loss program except Weight Watchers Points Plus Program, which is basically the same thing. Spark was just waaay more fun though

I've tried the Realize site, Sparkpeople, Fit Day, Weight Watchers online and My Fitness Pal. I prefer MFP above the others. I very rarely have to actually type in the nutrition information for an item, it is usually already in the database. I love the ability to scan bar codes with my phone.

I also like the supportive bandsters on MFP. I'm Dulcislim on that site. If you choose to start using it, add me as a friend.

I used to use Fitday for the longest time. It did custom foods best when you want to enter in the nutritional value yourself. Searching for foods was not so great. I got a Fitbit for my birthday a week ago and love the Fitbit.com website for food tracking. Customizing foods is easy and there are TONS of pre-loaded foods where I don't have to look anything up.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
