Hi I recently was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease, fatty liver disease and pre diabetes. My doctor suggested this app. I feel like I’m a mess at this point every test I do turns into another diagnoses or more testing. I have a hard time getting in the calories I need I can go all day without eating then eat 4 bites for dinner and be done my body is in starvation mode which has been since I was an infant. I was removed from my home at 4 months from being serverly starved at the time I was only 8 pounds so I have an extremely hard time losing weight.

    Hey, sounds like you've had a rough time! My brother has Crohn's disease and my father in law suffered from fatty liver so I know a little about those, but if anything hopefully they can help give you motivation to get where you need to be health wise. I know that using MFP, if you log everything consistently and set realistic goals you can achieve them. Maybe try and start walking or find some other way to get active as well. You really will need to eat more regularly, but starvation mode or not your body basically works on calories in vs calories out. If you are consistently taking in less calories than you're using you will lose weight. I'm not sure what I can do to help but I'm happy to try, good luck!
