pinkdiamondprincess36 20 Posted April 21, 2013 I'm don't understand myfitnesspal. It's advising me that I need to have over 1500 calories a day to lose weight. There is no way I will get that amt of calories in and I don't think my dr would even want me to do that since I'm still on puréed food stage. Any insight into myfitnesspal.

johnlatte 1,232 Posted April 21, 2013 You can customize it to set your own caloric intake goal. Also note that if you exercise it will add calories for you if you log the exercise. I just ignore that and eat my original pre-set goals. If you go into My Home and then select Goals, you can change your fitness goals there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ShrinkingBiker 121 Posted April 21, 2013 I don't really look at their goals on there.. I wish they had a feature for wLS patients. I just use to to log food and see what calories/ Protein / fat I have taken in. I avg between 400-600 on most days. usually around 500. but when I adjusted my calories down it said something like 20 grams of protein. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
