I am on MFP too. I would love you to friend me. my user name is rkimom. I was banded over two years ago and have been had core back to MFP for a couple of months and am finally losing again. I like that I can log on my phone or iPad and it syncs them. No excuses for not journaling.

HI.. I joined myfitness pal a few days ago.. someone here suggested it for helping me track my food. Im Pre-op and doing the three month NSWL before final insurance approval. I am trying to eat High protien low carb and stick to 1600 calories... My Doc also put me on Bio-Lean...(my mother calls them hooey pills) If anyone else uses that site or is in the same boat as i am please add me as a friend.. I would love to have someone in the same boat as i am. Most i have found on that site are not WLS people... i keep hearing people here talk about it.. so im sending up a flare to find me!!!!!! my nick over there is "Mrsktillman"

MFP is great for tracking you food, but I don't use it for that primarily. I use it to determine the nutritional value of my recipes and food choices. I have found it is great for that. Tracking you food choices is an excellent way of keeping yourself on track. I have done it a few times, but I am not fanatical about carb count like some on the forum. You need some carbs for energy and balance.

I think it is good you are getting into the habits and lifestyle before surgery. I am betting you will have fewer adjustment problems than some seem to have. Your pre-op guidelines sound very reasonable. Just don't let your good pre-op results give you second thoughts about the sleeve. It is the best thing that every happened to me and my daughter. Good luck on your journey.

My MFP name is 12beamup. Maybe I'll see you there...Kathe

Keep track of everything you eat. Even on the bads days when you want to conveniently forget;-) You will be shocked to see how quickly you can 10 calorie yourself up to 1600. I agree with Grannyk, learning the good habits now will be better so you are not so emotional after the surgery. You are going to LOVE the sleeve, it is a life changing event.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
