Hi there! i'm recovering from surgery and normally exercise A LOT but since the surgery I haven't been able to. I'm a comfort eater so I've just been going overboard while I've been recovering. I've been eating at least 500-600 calories over every day this week!! I'm worried, I think I need some more accountability. I desperately want to get back to having the will power I used to have. Would appreciate the add - I can be very supportive of my myfitnesspal friends. I'd also appreciate anyone telling me they've had a similar experience where they had a crazy strange week and got back to normal eating easily afterward.

    HI ya, I had an knee operation 4 weeks ago, and I'm on crutches and can't get about very well. Initially i was concerned with weight gain, but not any more. I spent my time devising different routines to use throughout the day, together with my physiotherapist.

    I've started a group with exercises in there, no one has joined it, its only me there, you're welcome if you want support with exercise.
    Its called Disabled/immobile

    Thanks that sounds so great! I'll have recovered from this injury in a week or so but while I'm recovering it would be helpful if you don't mind :)
