I still have the hardest time finding stuff I like to eat for breakfast and that keeps me full until lunch. When I have the time I do eat an egg and a slice of turkey sandwhich meat but I get tired of the same thing.

Question...
So I am new to having a fitbit flex, I had the zip and I loved it so I'm sure I'll love this one too! So my question is this, I know it says to wear on your non dominate hand for best results but I wear a watch on my non dominate hand for work, so is it really way off if I wear the flex on my dominate hand? I'm always so…

About Time Protein

It is made with stevia, has less than 1 carbohydrate and 25 grams of protein. Come in all kinds of flavors also (like birthday cake and mint mocha!).... But no one I…

Protein
Ok I have a question, my doctor said I need to get at least 60 grams of protein in a day (more if I can), but since my surgery I just can't stomach the taste or smell of protein powders or shakes. I had no problem with the powders or shakes before the surgery but now they just make me gag! I do get my 60 grams a day…

Frustrated!
I am 6 weeks out and so far have lost 23 pounds and most of that was in the first month. The past week I have barely lost anything and it is really frustrating!!

How Many Calories?
So I am in my soft foods phase and was told to eat only when hungry and that I can have 3 meals and 1 snack. I rarely ever eat a snack, and if I do its like a bite or so of cottage cheese. I know that with the bypass I will have the MFP warning of being under calories but I wanted to know how many calories do you consume…
