Hi all,
Wondering if anyone knows of a useful app where I can track what I am eating and also bowel movements? Thought it would be a bit easier than carrying around a notebook everywhere! There seem to be several apps but I would appreciate advice from anyone who has used one that works for them.
Thanks,
Maria

Maria this would be great! I don’t know of any Apps. Hoping someone here will have a suggestion.
I use “my fitness pal” for a food log/calorie tracker. Been using it for 2 months now and I’ve lost 13 pounds without exercise…..
Thanks Ryan! I'll check it out, but for me it's not about losing weight but more to see if I can establish any causal link between what I am eating and the bleeding I am experiencing (not hoping for any miracles, but any reduced bleeding would help) so I do want to track bowel movements as well.
I use a poop tracker app..works good
I hope the app can help you find if a food is the cause of the bleeding..keep us posted
@tshirt I would not focus on diet but visit a doctor if bleeding is happening regularly. If the blood is looking bright red then it is fresh and likely to originate from the pouch or anal region. If it is darker or black, then the small intestine or stomach are more suspicious.
If you feel unusually exhausted you should also have your iron blood levels checked.
