Not on a WLS note, but I traveled to Mexico while I was pregnant, and started to bleed. I went to the *best* hospital and they wanted to INDUCE ME at 26 weeks, because the baby had "low fluid". I talked to my doctor in the US and we decided it would be in my best interest to return home and be seen immediately. Flew home…

So how exactly do I know how many to eat? I have a fitbit if that helps at all.... I punched in my goal and 2lb a week loss and its telling me 1200 calories. Does that sound right?

What is CICO? Sorry:/ And I guess why I am asking is because it does seem very unhealthy and really really hard. Last night I went out and it was only a pizza place so all I could pick was pizza and I seriously ate a slice skinnier then 2 inches because I'm just terrified of real food. Which makes no sense. But, once you…

And for how long, its until I'm 10lb from goal weight. They said most will lose about 10-15lbs a month doing it, so from that math, I'd eat like this for like 7ish months.

It's like Sanford protein shakes for breakfast, shake for snack, shake for lunch plus 2 cups veggies, shake for snack, and then 3oz protein and 2 cups veggies and 3/4oz cheese for supper, and then another shake before bed...

I've noticed occasional itching, but nothing visible. I have started taking it off to sleep and it is much better.

And I sync basically constantly because I sync with my phone. I was mainly asking this question to plan my meals when I'm in class 8-5 and then didn't get surprised by being over at the end of the day.

Yeah, I'm on like day 4 I think? I've just got a mess going on... Even these days I think I'm sedentary I'm still getting 8-10k steps without a workout and I am also nursing a very new baby. I've been eating about 1800-1900 calories and I've lost 2 lbs this week. Which I know isn't a realistic long term thing... I guess…

I am just trying to get a good idea, as I am still in my last semester of college so I don't have a choice during class times. But, I'll have to take extra trips to the water fountain or increase the morning work outs

I do have the negative on. I am just wondering how you ever really know what your goal is for the day when it can change so much by the end of it. :neutral_face: I guess I just need to do some trial and error

I currently have a 12 week old baby who I am also breastfeeding. I would love more mamas on here in the same boat! I also have a fitbit!

I am also exclusively breast feeding, so I wanted to see what other ladies are getting as a calorie goal. I have mfp set to lose 1lb a week and have synced my fitbit. Mfp gives me 1900 calories a day (after I've included the -500 for breast feeding) and my fitbit is also giving me between 300-500 calories for activity.…

Thank you very much!

I think I've figured it out now. I guess fitbit was down, so that was probably messing it all up. But if anyone knows anything about how to factor in nursing, that would be great!
