I think this is a really neat product. I had lap band...
I purchased the little black book on line and have used it every day since. This is the perfect size for your purse or for a mans big pocket. As a bariatric lap band patient I was looking for something small but complete. This fits the bill.
Great product, and great folks behind the product. You won't be sorry with this purchase. I love the extra little pocket, I keep my Bariatric teams cards in there and my personal choice menu. Will have to check out the refill too.

Benefits of A Food Journal
As somebody who has lost over 100 pounds and has kept it off for almost seven years, I know that success is possible. Overweight all my life,not only did I not believe that reaching and maintaining a goal weight was possible, but I thought I'd probably be one of those people who eventually died as a result of being severely overweight (and at the rate I was going, that was my inevitable future.)
Almost seven years ago, I embarked on a journey to wellness that included writing down everything I ate. Keeping a food journal turned out to be a powerful tool for me. Using a food journal:
- Made me accountable for what I was eating (It broke through the denial that "I wasn't eating that much.")
- Enabled me to see trends (For example, when I was eating for emotional reasons)
- Helped curb impulsive eating (It made me stop and think about what I was putting in my mouth.
- Showed me patterns, such as when I was more likely to reach for food when I wasn't hungry
It took me three years but eventually I lost the weight. Even though I've been at a size 6 for several years now, I still write down my food every day. I do it because it works!...~SH
