I have the flex and it is pretty simple to use... WHat I really like is on your tracking page they have a link that takes you to foods listed by restaurant, brand, calorie contents of most common foods and you can customize your foods by brand, fresh, etc. All you do is plug in the USB cable...

Like you Laura my Pouch (Baby Roo) did not tolerate the same things all of the times, one day I'd be fine and a day or 2 later I'd have to switch up. I switched between 3 different bariatric vitamins and Centrum liquid as my belly would tolerate for the first few months...

Not all Adult Gummy Vitamins are nutritionally complete nor do they all have minerals and iron so please do due diligence... Also keep in mind, your 2 weeks out, on a proton pump inhibitor(hopefully) so your belly may not be able to digest and process the GUMMY vitamin and you may also run the...

I am on magnesium and Klor Con 2xs a day per my surgeons advice. It is extremely important especially because of the mal absorptive issues associated with Bypass. I was not having muscle cramps, it was the burn and weakness that got me. Now that I have upped the complex carbs to 2 1 ounce...

I started with a Polar. I did not like the fact that I was not able to track my daily water intake, caloric intake, calories burned ratio to calories in, steps plus vigorous work out minutes per day... The fitbit also tracks your hours of sleep per night, restlessness periods and awake period...

I spoke to my nutritionist yesterday about muscle pain and weakness issues. I was told to increase my complex carb servings up to 2 servings a day, add a small amount of fat as well as add an additional protein shake to my daily routine. I am power walking 2.5 miles a day which was not being...
