  1. so ive been hearing a lot that if you start off walking for say 5 minutes, and then you start to run for 1-3 minutes and then repeat until you reach your goal destination, itll be just as efficient as it would be if you just ran the whole distance. my doctor said as long as i keep my heart rate the same speed then it it beneficial. has anyone done this method??
  2. so my surgeon said that i have to wait a half hour to drink afte i eat. but am i allowed to drink right before i eat something?
  3.    Sai reacted to a post in a topic: how am i supposed to consume 1500 calories a day?
  4. the greek yogurt with the pb sounds so good..def gonna try it! thank u
  5. thats a good idea! i love cheese and pb.. thanks :]
  6. my nutritionist is basically useless. thank you both for all the ideas. my doctor wants me to lose 2 pounds a week and with that being said, he said 1580 is appropriate for that amount of weight loss
  7. i will add you on myfitnesspal. thanks and i feel as though im eatting too little. i have oatmeal with almonds in it during the morning. for lunch ill have a piece of chicken and then fruit such as an apple or banana. and then for dinner ill have either a salad with grilled chicken and no dressing. and some grapes or strawberries . i dont know what else to eat.
  8. im still trying to lose. i have a lot more to lose. i know its possible to consume that much i just dont know what to eat in order for me to get that high.
  9. i had my surgery in september of 2011. im still struggling with the calorie intake. im lucky if i eat 600 a day. i dont know what to do.
  10. so my doctor says i need to have 1580 calories a day. how is this possible? i need a meal plan. please someone guide me in the right direction. thank you
  11. thank you both! it a big deal if i cant make my amount of calories. i have wanted to do 1000 a day but i dont think i even make 700 calories.
  12. thank u all so much. wonderful ideas that ill be sure to try!
