Mayo Clinic Post-Bariatric Surgery

The Mayo Clinic Post-Bariatric Surgery App is designed by the bariatric surgery team at Mayo Clinic to help you stay healthy and to achieve your goals following bariatric surgery. This App has a number of exciting features which support your efforts to continue a healthy lifestyle.

- Real-Time Alerts: Alerts are real-time messages sent to you throughout your day, asking you about your eating and activity choices. Based on your individual responses, you will receive tailored feedback, encouraging you to make healthier choices. In order for these Alerts to work, you will have to turn on notifications for the App in your Notification Center.

- Vitamin Checker: Because taking all of your recommended vitamins and minerals is so important after bariatric surgery, we’ve included a Vitamin Checker. You can enter your vitamin/mineral schedule and then sync them to your iPhone calendar to remind you to take them.

- Symptom Checker: Certain symptoms are fairly common following bariatric surgery. Use the Symptom Checker to learn about common symptoms and their causes and when it may be necessary to contact a member of your healthcare team.

- My Report: With the My Report feature, you’ll get a summary of everything you’re tracking through the App. This report can be printed or e-mailed right from the App for you or your healthcare team to review.

- FAQs: You may have a lot of questions following surgery. Use the FAQs section to get answers to many of the common concerns following surgery.

- Learning Modules: There are short nutrition, physical activity, and wellness videos, which review key aspects of general health as well as specific things to consider following bariatric surgery. You can earn Award points simply by watching the videos and earn extra points by taking a short quiz after the videos.

- Goal Center: Because setting goals can be a powerful lifestyle tool, the App includes a Goal Center. You’ll be able to create personalized nutrition and physical activity goals. Once you create your goals, you can sync them to your iPhone calendar with the click of a button.

- Award Center: Earn points throughout the App on your journey to a healthier you. Compete with your friends along the way.

- Track It!: Recording weight, activity, and meals can be very helpful in achieving a variety of lifestyle goals. Mayo Clinic’s Post-Bariatric Surgery makes this simple with its Track It! section. With just a few clicks, you can log your weight, the type and length of your physical activity, and what you’re eating and drinking. The nutrition section of the tracker actually lets you add photos to your food diary, so it’s both a text and a photo food journal.

- Meal Timer: It’s important to eat slowly after bariatric surgery. To help you practice eating more slowly, the App includes a Meal Timer. It will store your most recent meal timings, so you can track your progress over time.

- Fluid Tracker: Drinking enough fluids after bariatric surgery can be challenging. That’s why the App includes a Fluid Tracker which records your fluid intake throughout the day.

- Care Team: The Post-Bariatric Surgery App also helps you stay in touch with your healthcare team. With the click of a button you can call or e-mail any member of your care team.

- Connect: Staying connected with great resources is essential in supporting a healthy lifestyle. We’ve included links to bariatric surgery support groups and other Mayo Clinic resources, helping you connect with reliable information, care providers, and others on a similar journey.
