Starting my seventh week since being sleeved - Looking for food tracking apps



Recommended Posts

I starting my seventh week since being sleeved and I'm seeing some significant changes. I've dropped 54 lbs since my pre-op weigh-in and 73 lbs from my high weight when I made my decision to start down this path. I'm also seeing some slowing in the decline of my quick weight loss of the first of the few weeks as I've moved into regular foods. If only it would continue but I understand the process. I'm beginning to add some exercise into my routine (3-5 mile walks) so I know this will help my metabolism.

I'm using an app for my Blackberry to track the foods I eat called Calorie Counter by Fat Secret. It gives me Protein counts and seems to have almost every kind of food out there. Any one try this app or other apps? Tips for tracking? I'm always looking for tips and this forum seems to have a lot of motavated and creative people.

I use Myfitnesspal.com as well, and I have the app on my Droid X. I love it. At first I just wrote down everything I ate in a notebook, but this is soooo much easier. I love being able to track calories, Protein, carbs, sugar, everything, and you can go back to any date, even look at graphs. It also has a thing where you can scan barcodes and it puts the info in, I have only come across a few foods that it didn't find.

I just got an update to my Calorie Counter app and now it has ADS on the screen! I hate spam. I checked out the app you all recommended and they don't have it for Blackberry so I'll have to wait but it looks good.

I love myfitnesspal.com on my DroidX.

I downloaded on my wife's EVO. It looks pretty good.

I started using myfitnesspal on the recommendation of others on this Board and I love it too! It does have a Blackberry app now too. It's very easy to use.

I use Tap & Track on the iPhone. Very helpful app. It comes with a database, the ability to add custom foods, restaurant nutritional data, etc. Tracks weight, Protein, calories, carbs, everything but Water. It charts your info too.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      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!
