What apps do you use other than My Fitness Pal to help keep you focused? I found one few days ago to help get me back on track it's called Bariatric Timer ...helps me not drink to soon and more aware of eating times

Great idea for a thread, and I will look for bariatric timer. That tends to be still something I struggle with even five months out. I also just finished a couch to 5K app called 5K Runner, and so then I signed up for one called forever 5K which helps you improve your speed. Both are really great. I used my Fitbit app now instead of my fitness pal, since I was having trouble getting them to talk to each other, and it just took longer to log it in my fitness pal for me. I love the Fitbit 1 too, and check it throughout the day, often altering my day to include more activity because of it. I set the tiny vibrating alert for twice a day to remind me to get up and move around if I am doing a lot of desk work. Good app they are using?

When. I decided to have surgery I bought the Jawbone Up 24 and use the app which is cool because it works with MFP and quite a few other ones

Some other cool apps I have found useful are "Water your Body" keeps track of your Water intake, tells you how much you should drink for your weight and has reminder alerts... "Monitor your Weight" basically a place to log your weight makes it easy to see at a glance I love this one..."Eat "Slower" just what it says a timer that you set by your plate and tells you when to take a bite you set how fast or slow you want your bites to be

I also use an ICE app with a widget on my home screen, this has all my surgery doctor and medical info at a glance... I thought about getting a medical Bracelet and still might but for now I think this is fine

Hi' I use Map My Fitness. It tracks your walk or run, and it will track your food. It has all kinds of uses. I also use Calorie Counter for food.

      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!
