iphone apps for sleeve patients...



Recommended Posts

I have been so faithful to write in my food log. I count calories, Protein, carbs, and Fluid ounces. However, I am getting extremely tired of this. I have an iphone and was wanting to start doing this on my phone instead. Does anybody have a suggestion for a good app that would do this?

Happy New Year to you all!

I use the Myfitnesspal.com to log everything. Their app is great and syncs very quickly with anything u log on the actual site.

There are quite a few apps that allow you to track everything u just have to decide which format u enjoy the most.

I also use Brita's "Water Lite" app as an extremely easy way to track my Water intake. It has a little round red number pop up (like when u get a text or missed call) that stays showing with the number of glasses u still need to drink. It's an excellent constant reminder if you are always looking at ur phone. :-)

Find one or two that work for you and it will become second nature to tap it in ur phone really quick. :-)

I have an android phone and an iPod. I use the Calorie Counter app from fatsecret.com. I especially like that it lets me save my food logs as pdf files so that I can easily print or email them to my dietician. I also really like their recipe builder and that it remembers my frequently eaten foods.

I use Lose It on the Ipod to track my food and exercise! I don't track my Water but I know how much I get in each day! I LOVE this app because you can look up SO MANY different foods or just add your own!

The my fitness pal app on the iPhone is one of the best I have seen. You can set goals, it counts your calories for you and also let's you know where you stand as far as nutrition intake as well.(ie..saturated fats, cholesterol,sugar, and so on) you can chose different foods or foods from a resturant, and the calories are already there. This is a very easy app.

      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.
