Happy Sunday all!

Hope you’re all doing well on your journeys, regardless of where you are 😊

I was just wondering what some of your favorite apps are for weight loss and tracking your progress throughout the wls process. I have a Fitbit so I use that app and MyFitnessPal is good for tracking what I eat. But are there any other apps you like in particular (Bariatric-related apps or non-bariatric related)?

I have a tentative surgery date for 12/12, and want to get all my ducks in a row beforehand!

Baritastic! It's specifically for bariatric patients and let's you track your Water, Protein, Vitamins, etc. You can set reminders/timers and it has a surgery countdown.

Agreed that Baritastic is awesome. So many positives including it syncs with Fitbit, and your surgeon MAY have a code which when used, puts their entire specific program right in the app. My surgeon has a code and I can look up my entire program. I attached what it looks like for me when I wanna look up info or even contact my nutritionist directly. It has recipes and everything.

It's literally a one stop app for weight, exercise, macros, etc.

P.S. no, I don't own stock in the app lol

I just heard about noom. com on DIY network tonight, has anyone tried them, as yet. They spoke about yo-yodieting and a few other terms near and dear to bariatric people. Is it motivation or what?

or look for health related items. I know I have found it on my Google play screen before ,Why didn't I use it after all? It asked for a facility pass code and I didn't have it. So I said FORGET THIS!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
