I had VSG 5/5/17. I also use carb manager. It helps a lot when you are first learning Keto. I’m down 125lbs with 25 more to go to goal. I’ve been stuck at my current weight for over a year.

I use a scale and I do count my calories. But I’ve been at a stall for a long time. I’ve been maintaining for about a year now. I haven’t lost weight since I was 10 months post op.

Surgery was definitely worth it. I do struggle with appetite here and there. I haven’t lost weight since I was 10 months post op. I’ve been maintaining my weight. I’m very frustrated at this point. My surgeons office suggests 800-900 calories per day and to stay under 50g of carbs. It’s helping me to maintain but not lose.…

I basically could have wrote your initial Comment. I’m 5’4” and weigh 176. I had VSG 5/5/17 and have reflux so bad. My doctors submitted my revision to insurance on Nov 30th for Bypass so I’m waiting to hear back. How are you feeling now?

I take B12 sublingual daily. I take 500 units every single day.

I just ordered vitamin patches from PatchMD. They are good for 24 hours and you put a new one on. Hopefully this will be sufficient. I'm struggling with the multivitamins.

I do Zumba 3X a week. There is already a value for how many calories I burn. However there isn't for squats.

I have the same issue. I actually went to the informational session and my first appointment with the bariatric doctor. I've been in weight watchers for 5 years and I yoyo with it. I don't have high blood pressure and I'm not diabetic but I'm overweight. I'm giving this (MFP) a try while still going through the motions of…

I just bought an Apple Watch so hopefully I won't have this issue anymore.

My daily allowance is 92 and I eat around 150 but I always stay below my calories. I do not have any medical issues affected by protein consumption. Just arthritis in my ankle. I do exercise (walking and stationary bike).

I am always below on my calories but go over the protein. On average I'm around 1200-1400 per day. My allowance is 1480.

Fitbit has been really off lately too. I know for a fact that yesterday I climbed 6 flights of stairs, fitbit said 27??? I have a desk job and getting up from my desk to walk to the bathroom, lunch room whatever... By the time I left work it said I walked over 8000 steps. I know for a fact that I didn't. I'm not sure if…

I'm doing 1480 calories per day and I find it very difficult to reach that. I'm meeting my protein but I can't seem to get all the calories. Also I'm not eating the extra calories earned from exercise. I'm hoping this isn't a bad thing?!? But I'm in the same boat as you... I'm new to MFP with Lots of weight to lose and I…

Lentil chips! You can find them in the organic section of the grocery store. They are not bad for you, you still get the crunch if the tortilla chip.

I just started drinking protein shakes. I use unsweetened almond milk and a little PB2 with vanilla protein. Yummy!

Thanks! There is just a big difference between my phone and my Fitbit.

Life is busy!! I agree 100%. I have 3 kids and I'm always on the go. But I am going to start prepping meals on Sunday to prevent eating out or eating from a box! I can already tell MFP is a great tool to help me make decisions. I'm not used to having to log fruits and veggies and after not paying attention for years on how…
