Is there a NUT/vitamin checklist/app? How to keep track of it all?



Recommended Posts

Hi All. I'm just a few days post op and already feel like I am not sure what I am supposed to have and when. Has any found a checklist or an app that helps you keep track of everything? I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thank you!

You should have a plan from your surgeon as far as what to eat ect...right? It's hard to tell you what to have when we don't know your individual plan and nobody wants to tell you something that will go against your surgeons advice. As far as a tracker I use "lose it" "my fitness pal" is popular with a lot of people. As far as keeping track of your Vitamins a pill container (W-f) one is really helpful, that's what I use because I couldn't remember what I took ect. If you know your stages it may It will be easier for people to help you with suggestions. @@Elizabeth21

I did the weekly pill vial thing, too. I take some everyday, but some only 3-4 day/week and I could never remember which days. The pill vial totally worked, and it got easier as I was able to discontinue a lot of my supplements after my 6 month labs. They also make pill vials that have AM and PM for each day in case you have certain ones you have to take apart from others.

I never tracked my food or calories, but a lot of people do and seem to like My Fitness Pal.

I have less than a week when I can discontinue having to crush pills. YUCK!

I use chewable Vitamins for all my Vitamins which makes them too big to use in a weekly pill divider.

When I can go back to taking my pills whole, I am definitely using my divider again to keep track.

      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.

      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!
