is anyone using this app??

I've been using it daily and I would like to connect with more friends (especially those with "open diaries") so that I can get a better idea of what everyone else is eating... I keep my diary open as well.

I had my surgery 12/30/13 and i'm re-learning to eat all over again....still sounds funny to me.

thank you,

ellie

I'm using it. I wouldn't mind friends on it either although I'm slightly technically impaired. You'd have to explain how to me how to add someone. And perhaps how to make the diary open.

I'll take a look and see if I can figure out out as well.

Jensnewjourney. I'd love more friends on MFP to get ideas of what people are eating.

You can look for me in the "community" tab, "find members" then type my user name

or I can look for you if u give me your username.

You can go to settings to set ur diary open

Hope this helps

I use it but my diary is not open due to judge mental people with eating less than 1200 calories.

I understand....I've often wondered "if I eat this (not the most healthy choice) someone's gonna judge me, I should close my diary"... but so far I haven't had a bad experience...everyone's been very supportive...and I think that keeping my diary open helps me stay "in-check" and forces me to make better choices...that's a personal choice....I welcome ur friendship on MFP without you having to open your diary...I completely respect that.

As far as calories...I'm one of those that has been under 1200 but it's because I'm not even 3 weeks out and I can't get anymore in...more than anything else =)

Anyone is free to add me: Mouse0nTheMile (the O in On is a zero)

My diary should be open and hey, I chart everything and I'm not a purist, I eat some stuff I shouldn't, in small amounts and I'm honest about it. I've fortunately never had flame for it.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
