Hey y'all! I am putting together a list of apps that can help us all. These are all available on the iPhone, but you can check the android market as well.

So far I use My Water to track fluids. You can customize your goal in ounces or cups, you can customize container sizes so it is easy to track Fluid intake throughout the day.

Happy scale is a great weight tracking app. I broke down my weight loss into 10 lb. increments so I hit goals faster. This way I feel a sense of accomplishment instead of feeling like I will never hit a goal. With weight loss, every pound is a victory and I feel like a lot of us forget to Celebrate the small victories.

MyFitness Pal is good for tracking intake and exercise. You can get a group of friends and become buddies, and we all know how helpful it is to have a friend through this.

RNYTalk is of course the app I use most though.

What about y'all?

Striiv is a great app. It has walking games and friend challenges. You can link it to mfp so it deducts the calories burned.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
