Does anyone have any suggestions for an app that lets me track my hydration, protien intake?...

SparkPeople has an app I'm using to track them both as well as my weight and exercise.

I've looked at those but the seem to be focused more on someone who hasn't had the RNY... I mean really if I try to put in my actual info the program freaks out and basically calls the ER for me saying I'm malnourished and losing way too quickly

I haven't had any issues with SparkPeople. They have a forum for RNY as well.

I use an iPhone /iPad app called Protein 1. It sounds like the others described. But I might check those out too.

I've used "Tap and Track Pro" on my iPhone since Dec. 7th of last year. The app doesn't need to know that you've had a gastric bypass. You configure your height and weight. Then tell it your goal weight and how much you want to lose per week and the app calculates the number of calories you should have. Alternatively, you can configure it for whatever number of daily calories your doctor recommends at whatever post-op point you're at. It will even track Water if you add it as a "Favorite" and then just add it to your daily intake as often as you like. It also allows you to generate all kinds of reports including custom date ranges. There is a free version that you can use to give it a try. Research has repeatedly shown that folks who maintain a food diary or log lose more weight, lose it faster, and are more successful at maintaing their goal weight. There are many options for apps but some kind of log is highly recommended!! You're gonna love the new you!!

      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.
