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.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
