Atkins Carb Tracker App (15pnds in 2wks)
ShyV. posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Does anybody have this app? Its great!!!! It has calorie, carbs, Protein, and fat counts on almost everyfood. There is a recipes section where you can get recipes for all phases. Im 2 months out and a slow loser (26 pnds since surgery day) and currently in my 2nd stall so im going to be doing the phase 1 meals. It says you can lose up to 15pnds in the first 2 weeks. I need that!!!! Of course the amounts of good we will probably be able to consume for one recipe is most likely half, so ill just consider the calorie count 1/2. Anybody want to give this a try with me???? i would love to see if this works being that we technically Atkins dieters anyways lol. -
Ive only tried the chicken & brocolli alfredo and it tasted good to me.
-
Yes at Walmart. Omg and i was able to eat almost the whole thing at 9 weeks :-(
-
Let us know the outcome. Ive been wanting to do it.

I am devastated!!!! How can i have gained 2 pounds in 3 days when im eating the same as before. The only thing i can think of is i haven't been able to exercise this past week but seriously GAIN 2 pounds for that?????? After losing 2-3 weekly...... I thought those days were over yet it only took me 8 weeks after surgery to see the scale going up again. :-(
-
I cant help it. Im really really devastated. I cant stop balling out. Makes me not want to eat at all but with my luck i probAbly wont lose or even keep gaining.

Im 8wks out and i chug water fine. Almost 8onzes or more. The difference for me now is that i cant chug anything that is cold. It feels like its stuck in my throat so i cant do it. It hurts.
-
Im the exact same way. Im 7wks post opp and i want to get an xray done to see my sleeve. I kind of dont believe ive been sleeved. Lol. i feel soooooo normal to the point that i dont believe it was cut.

Depressed --- Need the VST Gang Reality Check
ShyV. replied to DanaInNewOrleans's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Dana i know exactly how you feel. I am also a slow loser. Today i am exactly 7 weeks out and have lost just 23pnds since surgery day. This past week is the only week thst surprised me with a 4 pnd loss and im sure its because i drank my BP pill which i havent drank in like 2 wks, it has a diuretic so thats probably the 4 pound. Im ok with losing as long as the rumor of no or little shaggy skin is true. So far i haven't really seen anyone confirm this. -
I am 7 weeks out and my weekly loss is 3 pounds. I feel it should be more. I started at 218 and today im 196. So just wondering whats your average weekly loss to see if i might be doing something wrong. I know i dont always get the required protein in but if thats the case, i cant help but to say "i could have just done atkins. I power walk 1 hr 5-6x a week and barely consume carbs. Im a bit down, i really thought that i would be at about 45pounds less by 2nd month.

Does anybody have an incision in the bellybutton? I have a large vertical one right above mine. I hate it!!!!
-
Has anybody tried this? Is it good for us? It has 25grams of protein but some flavors are 200calories, 17g of carbs.....
-
Thanks im 6wks out. This might be a stupid question but.... Is it 2 scoops per 8-10onzes or 1 scoop?
-
Would you guys say the protein powder is as good (healthy wise) as the ready to drink kind?
-
Im scared that it has too many calories.
-
Wow lisa good job! Ur loss is really noticeable. Mine isn't that much. In total I've only lost 29 pnds. And bein so short equals to like nothing lol
-
Finally the scale's first number is a 1 instead of a 2. I am in the onederlands!!!!! Havent been here since like 6-7yrs ago. I am 199 today and am just 4'9 so have a LONG way to go but it does feel good to see a 1 lol. Ready for 2nd goal - 169pnds.
