So, I just started using the app MapMyWalk and its awesome! I was wondering if anyone else is using it? It counts how far you go, how long it takes and how many calories burned. It has settings for walking, hiking, biking, running etc. You should friend me! Robi Sifers

How accurate do you think map my walk is? I'm only asking as the same time and exercise seems to have different calorie count on myfitnesspal? Cheers

That is a good question, I am not sure. If I had to guess I think I would say maybe the times and calories are different on myfitnesspal, because the information is entered by anyone, kind of like wikipedia. You can enter how many calories for whatever exercise and anyone else who enters the same exercise will get the same choices including whether to use the previous entered calorie amount or enter their own and they may not be accurate. Like one day I played hopscotch with my kids for an hour and went to enter it and it was not listed. So I looked up ho many calories burned for playing hopscotch for 30 min and found it somewhere on google and entered it in manually on myfitnesspal, so now my results are saved for the next person who plays hopscotch lol. I am not sure if you can do this with mapmywalk. Either way, I know I am being way more active than ever before; so it is an improvement for me, even if it's not 100% accurate.

      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.
