Dollgirl 8 Posted July 1, 2012 Hi. I am just starting my 6 month per surgery weight loss diet. Can anyone suggest a low starch 1200 calories diet which has 60 carbs per day? I would really appreciate the help! Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
readytogoforit 172 Posted July 1, 2012 have you signed up on myfitnesspal.com or sparkpeople to log your food. fitnesspal breaks down all the categories and makes it fairly easy to eat correctly. mine is set up to calculate Fiber, Protein, fat and carbs. I log everything I eat and am able to keep track of it as the day goes on. I don't think you need a "diet" to follow, just eat fresh foods, no processed box foods, no chips or Cookies. drink lots of Water and you'll start seeing a difference. you will also feel good! 2 brenty and Kflower84 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brenty 27 Posted July 3, 2012 You will probably have more than a few 'ut oh' moments/days where you have things/quantities you shouldn't. Logging makes it so we can see our mistakes and make the necessary adjustments. Sort of like athletes who record video of themselves and study their form in slow motion. We're all unique, so trial and error is par for the course. Just keep at it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kflower84 56 Posted July 3, 2012 I thought I was not eating a lot and I couldn't explain why my weight loss had stopped. I started logging my food at myfitnesspal and I have lost 7pounds in about 2weeks. I could probably do better if it wasn't for my naughty weekends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
