@mrs On the app, tap on Goals in the menu and there is a Nutrition Goals section where you can change everything. Can't remember where to do this on the website, but it will be a similar process. Thank you so much!! I don't know why i never thought to look under goals DUH!!

I have been using My Fitness Pal for years....right now (and I am not even two weeks out of surgery) I am just using it to chart what I eat so I can basically look at the nutrition to check my Protein. I like being able to scan labels and makes my life easier. I couldn't find a place to adjust the numbers they suggest I have tried!

Mine was March 18th and I have been there....two days ago I had major regret and what have I done issues. I think for me I am such an active mom/teacher etc...it's the being home alone all day (well during the day when my kids are at school) bored that's been messing with me! I would sit and be hungry but I think out of boredom since my stomach isn't really hungry! I go back to work Monday and I am hoping that helps...even though I only work 3 days a week I think being able to get out of the house and get back into routine is going to help. I hope it gets better for you!!!!

hahaha Love it!

Glad you are doing well! Mine was March 18th too! ONE WEEK SURGERVERSARY!! I am doing well started the pureed diet yesterday and doing great so far!! Drove my daughter to school today too!

I am only one week out and haven't returned back to work but I am a preschool teacher (so in the classroom) I keep a Water bottle available to sip whenever I can get back to my desk while playing. I take it outside too. I guess i am fortunate my kids eat snack so during the liver shrink diet I would just eat a yogurt while they ate snack then pack a small lunch. I plan on drinking a Protein shake in the car while driving my kids to school and on my way to work. I am dreading Easter parties and teacher appreciation week (which of course is the week I get back) I will have to bring home all the goodies to my kids.

I am with you!! I am a week out and have really done wonderful! Nurses at the hospital were so shocked how great I was doing and even now no nausea no vomiting did great starting full liquids and pureed foods.....my only downfall is the damn gas/bloating! It started at the hospital and hasn't stopped...it's so annoying and so hard to get comfortable (I can only sleep on my back) I pray it goes away soon for all of us!!!!

Congrats!! I am less than a week out and your pics are very inspirational! Keep up the hard work!!

Just sip slowly. I also only made the 4 oz and it took me like 25 min to drink it all.

I actually had a BM on day 2 so they wanted me to try to protein shake and yogurt before I left I have since had 4 oz of a protein shake this morning and everything has been fine! You will be fine

Glad you are doing well! My surgery was Wed and got to come home last night! I am doing great (though don't want to jinx myself) even tried 2 oz. greek yogurt and Protein shake before I left the hospital and all went well! Keep up the good work "losers"

My surgery was March 18th and I had a Protein shake yesterday 2 oz. of greek yogurt and chicken broth for dinner. It's amazing after only a few days! You are doing great if you are already doing the pureed stuff

Had my surgery March 18th! Everything went smooth, I met all my goals in the hospital, no major pain just discomfort..I should have known it was too good to be true....the nurses had me off everything and ready for discharge at 7:15 yesterday morning since I was doing so great (even had my bowel movement already) We were all packed, dressed and ready to go and then just sat and waited...and waited! The surgeon booked 6 surgeries yesterday and was running late so went straight to the Operating room and didn't release us two patients waiting to go home until almost 5 pm! Very frustrating but I am home now! Figured out I have to sleep on my back not my sides like usual I still have some fluids in me (still swollen) but I am down 15 lbs. from the day I started the liver shrink diet until now!!! I am going to stick with the official weigh/take measurements every Sat morning but I am sure I will cheat and weigh myself more during the week especially this week with the fluids all coming off!

Congrats! I had mine 3 days ago and you will do great!

I do take an acid reducer and am taking it to the hospital with me! I was wondering about having to swallow them though since they are huge I might have to see if I can get a smaller pill Long story short they have ruled out an ulcer since I have had the stomach issues for almost 4 years....tons of testing thousands of dollars later and we know NOTHING really. I mean I do have acid reflux, esphogitis, and irritated stomach lining....which my surgeon hopes this surgery will actually help with that!!!
