Apply for insurance, finance the surgery, consider medical tourism

Hi! Everyone's plan is very diverse but some rules for WLS patients given to us by our various Teams are: Protein: 60 g- 100g Fiber: 20g Carbs: under 50 g for Ketosis (but some like to go a low as possible) Fat: under 40 g (but some like to go a low as possible to prevent gallbladder issues) You can save foods/ recipes in MFP so they are available for you to use often as entries. Try to get the initial entry spot on so yoy won't have to fix it later. It can be created under my foods, meals, recipes or simply use the most recent list You can also enter under multu add instead of one at a time once you have a list going, this really saves time. Check out all the settings of MFP especially the goals menu & Dont forget to log your water intake too! πYou've got this, congratulations for being aware enough to seek info and ask for helpπ -

Sugar begets Sugar...π But seriously sugar is additive You may need to find the complex carbohydrate alternatives that suit your lifestyle. This is early in the game but consider long-term lifestyle. Have you ever tried: Wheat berries, barley, bulgar in salads and soups, hummus, quinoa, falafel, beans, crispy broad bean snacks or pure puffed spelt/rice as cereal, homemade alternative (almond coconut quinoa spelt kamut) flours flatbreads, crispbreads, sprouted grain loaves, etc... Or if you really can't incorporate complex carbohydrates what about fats: pure nut butters, oils for cooking/dressings (I actually use that coconut oil for my hair/skinπ), avocado, etc... Hoping you find the balance π

Yes, so far... I keep waiting for a hiccup in the process so i can say Aha! I shouldn't do it but everything is moving ahead at light speed and insurance has already approved it, I'm on the schedule, preop is confirmed etc etc... -
