Building a WLS Iphone, Blackberry App- HELP !!!
Hi Ladies and Gents,
I am in the process of building an app specifically related to WLS. I want to know what specifically you would want the app to do for you. Some of the responses I've gotten so far have been:
- send reminders about vitamins, water, protein
- meal planning
- exercise suggestions
- weight loss tracker
Anything you could think of that would make your post op wls journey go more smoothly I would appreciate. If you've started to regain weight, how could the app help you get back on track. I'll be posting this on a couple of forums. I appreciate your input.

Great Idea- I've been looking for such an app.
Meal planning would be great -especially if you also included phase specific meals/recipes. So while in full liquids you could access a variety of food suggestions etc.
Food diary/log for tracking daily nutrition (ie; protein, calories, fats etc)
Dr. appointment reminders /
Also, the weight loss tracker should also track time since surgery (ie; 3 months post op; or 2 weeks etc).
Those are my two cents..
Good luck.

HI there,
First let me say woo hoo! I would love to have an app for WLS folks.
I think you have hit on the biggies and I agree witht he other posters. as a bandster I would like to have a function to track my band fills. Also, I would like the ability to track an overall goal weight, and interim goals. Fo instance, my overall goal may be 110 lbs, but I want to lose 25 by Easter...
Thanks for taking my input, I look forward to seeing the app.
PS: Please don't forget about those of us with the Droid!
