Yes, it does, I have found it to be the most comprehensive website/app when it comes to nutrition. You will find it very helpful!

Here's another good one....Lose It!.....I have this app on my iPhone. My husband downloaded it for me. I haven't really played around with it yet, but he used it when he was dieting and really liked it. You can scan the barcode on something and add it to your food list. It will know all of the nutritional information of that item. Also has many restaurant items. You can also make up your own "recipes". He would put in for example 1 cup cooked penne, 1/2 cup sauce, 2 oz non-fat mozz. cheese and find out the total calories for that dish. Then he named it baked ziti and when he adds that food to his dinner menu it automatically knows the calorie count. This can be really awesome if you have a lot of "go to" foods or food combinations. Once you add a food that you ate, it will give you the total calories for the day thus far, and give you the remaining calories left for the day.

Hope this helps.

I forgot to mention that Fooducate also has a paid app for those with specific food allergies and who are Gluten Free.

Just passing on a wonderful website which provides excellent information:

http://www.fooducate.com/

Fooducate can also be found on Facebook.< /p>

You can download from iTunes and it is also Android compatible.

I use this as a piggyback to MFP.

So I checked it out. Did you watch the "Fooducate in Action" video? HILARIOUS SONG!! If you havent heard it, go listen to it on the video. Awesome website. Thank you for the recommendation.

      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.

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
