On MyFitnessPal, you can go to:

HOME

GOALS

CHANGE GOALS

And input what you want for pre-op calories, Protein, Carbs, Fiber or whatever else your NUT wants you to focus on.

I put in 1000 cals (too many, but the closest I could get with the right protein), 125g carbs (we only need 120 but again, the closest I could get), 75g Protein (which is exactly what my doct and NUT want) and 25 grams of Fiber.

Now I can count down WITHOUT referring back to my book constantly. I am not in pre-op yet, but I am trying to ease down and it's annoying to see I have so much left over each day. Just an FYI!

Pre-op starts Thursday for 2 weeks, surgery on the 16th.

Does anyone else use this? I've used it in the past but never stuck to it. I really want to keep up with it this time and I think if I have friends on there that will help. If you use it add me, username is callie_henry

Hi all! I added a recipe to myfitnesspal but I wasn't sure the number of servings. How do you figure that out? I feel dumb even asking.

I have to make the recipe first. And measure it out with measuring cups (depending on what it is)

Is there another way?

I have been using MFP for awhile now and when I adjust the intake, after surgery, to the numbers my doctor suggested, even going under custom settings it will skew other numbers and won't stay at what I have set.

Does anyone know how to fix it so I can personalize all the settings?

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
