Has any one got a step counter



Recommended Posts

My Dr told me that a step counter would be a good idea. Because I have to do a hour a day or 10,000 steps so I got one that has a appointment for my phone. It also tracks my sleep and How long I go with out walking.

I bought the Jawbone UP and like it. It tracks my steps and sleep. It also syncs with My Fitness to collect my food info. And MFP collects activity from Jawbone. I considered getting the FitBit but am cheap! Lol. My Jawbone UP was only 44.99 and fits anywhere on my clothes. You can also buy a watch band and wear it on your wrist.

Oh! And it gives you tips on your progress.

I use a Fitbit. It syncs with my phone and with MyFitnessPal. I chose the version that has the display on the wrist because I like having it as a watch and so I can see my steps quickly, but the non-display version is about $20 cheaper. It has a vibrating alarm in the mornings, which I like because I can turn it off without rolling over and it only wakes me up. It does a good job of tracking my steps and gives me an idea of how much I move on some days compared to others.

There are several products I like the fit bit zip. It about $50 and is accurate within 5%. You can also track meals on their website and has a cell phone 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.
