Yes, it does, I have found it to be the most comprehensive website/app when it comes to nutrition. You will find it very helpful!

Here's another good one....Lose It!.....I have this app on my iPhone. My husband downloaded it for me. I haven't really played around with it yet, but he used it when he was dieting and really liked it. You can scan the barcode on something and add it to your food list. It will know all of the nutritional information of that item. Also has many restaurant items. You can also make up your own "recipes". He would put in for example 1 cup cooked penne, 1/2 cup sauce, 2 oz non-fat mozz. cheese and find out the total calories for that dish. Then he named it baked ziti and when he adds that food to his dinner menu it automatically knows the calorie count. This can be really awesome if you have a lot of "go to" foods or food combinations. Once you add a food that you ate, it will give you the total calories for the day thus far, and give you the remaining calories left for the day.

Hope this helps.

I forgot to mention that Fooducate also has a paid app for those with specific food allergies and who are Gluten Free.

Just passing on a wonderful website which provides excellent information:

http://www.fooducate.com/

Fooducate can also be found on Facebook.< /p>

You can download from iTunes and it is also Android compatible.

I use this as a piggyback to MFP.

So I checked it out. Did you watch the "Fooducate in Action" video? HILARIOUS SONG!! If you havent heard it, go listen to it on the video. Awesome website. Thank you for the recommendation.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
