hard copy food journal
I am three weeks away from surgery and preparing as much as possible. I have tried all kinds of food journals in the past (online, apps, etc). However, I would really like to have one to write on the old fashioned way-one that is set up to be able to record the specific needs especially during the first few weeks. Does anyone know of one (or even a template) out there that is good for our specific needs?

I use a 4 x 6 spiral-bound hard copy from the Center for Weight Management I had WLS. This little, blue book is entitled Celebrate Success. Each page has a place for date, exercise, relaxation, supplements, water, food intake and protein gram totals. At the bottom there is room to add my own idea which is what I am thankful for that day. I have seen it for sale at their gift shop for around $5.00. Here is contact information: St. Joseph's Area Health Services Center for Weight Management, 600 Pleasant Ave, Park Rapids, MN 56470 Phone 218.237.5705 to speak to the bariatric coordinator or her email [email protected] or a general phone 1.800.566.3311 to be connected to the gift shop.
Hi there- I haven't had surgery yet, but am about a month away from it. I'm planning on getting the Dietminder personal food/fitness journal from Amazon. It has areas for daily meals, including snacks, and you write in calories, protein, fiber, etc. It also has a spot to track your multivitamins, water intake, exercise, and a little spot for notes. I like the fact it's going to be something I can carry with me all the time. Here's a link so you can see it.
Good luck,
LB
