SuperFab 689 Posted February 19, 2014 Does anyone else use the app My Fitness Pal for tracking Protein and food? My nut suggested it yesterday and it's pretty cool. I'm getting more protein than I had thought. Here's a typical day on the full liquid diet: Light yoplait banana yogurt w vanilla protein powder(took 45 mins to eat) 4 oz Protein Shake (milk+unjury+carnation) 1/2 cup cream of chic Soup w Protein Powder 1/2 cup FF cottage cheese 1/2 cup cream of chic soup w protein powder DQ sugar free Fudgesicle (yummy!!) Between eating every two hours and trying to get the Water in between food and then the calcium chews and Vitamins I feel like I'm always trying to get something down! But I was down 15 lbs at my first week follow up!! Yay!! OMG that pain Syrup in the hospital was awful! I had to plug my nose to get it down. Good news was the prescription I filled after discharge had some cherry flavor and wasn't quite as bad. I'm on there. Aprilgilley is my user name Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ccaramel27 56 Posted February 19, 2014 Been dry heaving and nauseous all day, but still walking loops. Lol The nausea is the worse. Are they giving you Zoloft for it? For me the day after surgery I was super tired and queasy. The walking is great! I'm going to go do that now on a rainy afternoon in NYC. Here's some motivation I finally started losing some weight 10 pounds so far! Keep up the good work super fab! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bodie602 16 Posted February 19, 2014 Just finished all of my pre op tests. OMG the barium stuff is horrid and the test where they have to test your oxygen in your blood..... I felt it in my nostrils. It was awful. But it's done and now is my surgery. I'm ready for the 28th!!! 1 Jencovi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry your roommate's people are so inconsiderate. Today was another bad one for me, but I'm sure yours will be good.

Good news was the prescription I filled after discharge had some cherry flavor and wasn't quite as bad. The second I went to my first consult I downloaded this app. That was on December 30th. Starting weight was 326. Today I am 296. It really put into perspective what I put in my mouth and taught me to make better choices. I've put myself on 1200 calories and am exercising. Such a big help since my insurance doesn't require nutritional classes. I highly recommend it to ANYONE pre-op or post!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
