  1. I use a scale to weigh things. Measuring cups help too. But the thing I like to use the most is MyFitnessPal app. It's great for pre-packaged Foods, your own recipes, even restaurants. I want to make sure that I'm getting all my nutrients. FitnessPal tracks not only my calories but my Protein, Iron, Calcium, Water intake and my exersice all the good stuff in one place on my phone. Has a wonderful way of showing you your weakness too...like when you eat that high carb item and look back at the list of high carbs for day. There at the top will be your mistake or accountability however you look at it. But like everything else if you don't use the tool religiously or if you fudge your intake you will not have an accurate picture. In the long run its about staying honest with yourself and always making the best choices you can. Like everything else logging the information becomes habit. It's quick and easy with the app.

    I am 1 week post op VSG and I want to begin using MFP as my food diary. I am not sure exactly how to add my own recipes or other foods. Is there a tutorial or any advice you would suggest to this newbie?
