You said your body is gaining instead of losing?? Did I read that right lol. I'm so excited to find a six weeker as well. I will add you so we can compare ;)

LOL

I did indeed say that. I, of course, meant the opposite. My body is *losing* instead of *gaining*.

Hi, I am 12 days post op and doing great, but a little frustrated in trying to use myfitnesspal on my smart phone. It asked my goals in weight loss weekly and it TOLD me what my calorie intake should be.

Can I manually put in WHAT I WANT and what my CALORIE INTAKE and other intakes are? Please if anyone can give me simple guidance that would be great!

PonyUp - I had the same problem and was able to fix it this morning.

Go on to your profile on the MFP website. Go into goals and make your changes. Be sure to apply the changes at the bottom of the page! That was my failing.

Remember, it works on percentages so when you change your calorie intake you might have to readjust your desired Protein grams.

Good Luck!

About the calories I would not touch them unless you have a HRM because myfitnesspal overestimates everything some people need those extra carbs after a good long work out I have experienced this before I have worked out really hard and I just felt so hungry after and that was my body saying that I needed extra carbs! I would say just listen to your body' date=' you know it better than anyone and your definitely not going into starvation mode anytime soon! Lol[/quote']

What's an HRM?

It's a heart rate monitor! I suggest polar, that's what someone suggested to me and it has been worth every penny, I spent 100 dollars off Amazon for it they sold them at the gym I got to for like 200, but I opted for cheaper!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
