We must be twin's! I think it important to keep a Joural of your food intake calorie's and calories burned.

I look at the scale at that will determine, what I' have to do for the day.

I also use excel although I am less likely to enter the data, I find the fun part is building the spreadsheets and learning new functionality. I am not well versed in using complicated array formulas but I do a pretty good job on pivot tables and love to play with things like Lookups and using graphing.

I think I need to go to the Dawg school of array formulas but ultimatley no matter how complicated the array it doesn't seem to make me lose weight any faster

I actually thought about doing that very thing :) the problem is that everyone will want something a bit different.

I am sure we could make one that could do just about everything we'd ever need. Might get a bit big though!

Well, I would like to track my stats but since I work for the government, you know, I'm probably too lazy to do any work on my own!:confused: haha Can you tell me if there is a website that has a free download format for one of these sheets or did everyone do their own? I really like Excel format. Thanks for your help!:clap2:

I did my own. Cause I'm a geekette :confused:

I'd be happy to post mine, but my I'm rolling up my rows rather than creating new sheets every week/month, so unless I spend some time cleaning that up, you'd have to know how to do that :cake:

Hm. Maybe that's a good Sunday project :cake:

In the spirit of giving I've produced a simplified version of my tracker.

It has various sheets providing a weigh history, a food journal and vital stastics.

The vital's can calculate your BMI and give you a percentage body fat calculation. The female calculation may be a teeny bit inaccurate because women tend to be more complicated than men when it comes to percentage body fat. I did check it though and it seems to be correct :confused:

It was created in Excel 2002 (Office XP) but might work in Excel 2000.

It may warn you about macros - it does have three but they are purely navigation macros. You can leave the macros off if ya want - the buttons won't work if you do though.

Think thats it. Feel free to take it and make it more complicated if ya want.

I did slap copyright on it - so if you take it and make a million - I want some.

      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.
