  1. Myfitnesspal has a free tracker and it is all you need to get started to see everything you are putting in your body... They do have a pay format as well but it's for alot more advanced if you need that.. Hope this helps...

  3. NEVER!!!! I JUST THINK ABOUT HOW MANY 80 YR OLD 300 POUNDERS I SAW WALKING THE STREETS!!!! NONE!!!!!! I'M GOOD ON THE BUYERS REMORSE....
  4. Good luck and hang in there it will get better!!!!!
  5. Congrats!!!! That is really impressive and you should be proud....
  6. We all fall down, just get back on your horse and move forward.... I ate some buffalo wings and some chocolate chip cookies and boy did I pay for that, I only had 5 wings and 2 cookies but I payed for that on the toilet!!!! And I didn't feel good the next day either!!!!!! There's a price to pay for everything we do good or bad!!!!!!
  7. 100% I think everyone's stomach is making noises. It will pass or it will remind you what you did to it!!!!! All good....
  8. I only told my father cause I had to have someone take me and pick me up from the hospital... It's your personal business and your choice to tell anyone... Good luck
  9. Congrat!!!! That is awesome....
  10. Dust yourself off and get back on the horse....
  11. Congrats!!! U r killin it!!!!
  12. Hang in there it will be worth it!!! I was in the same place as you and it does get better, I never liked eggs that much before but when it was time to eat soft foods eggs were my best friend... Hang in there....
  13. My surgeon started me on vitamins 10 days after surgery...
  14. Stall are going to happen, just focus on your protein, water and getting some exercise and it will pass. Hang in there and push forward....
  15. I was told the same thing about the acid in stomach and being thirsty when you get really strong hunger out of no where.. I drink water and it seems to help with the hunger.. Hope this helps
  16. Wow!!! That really sucks... Hope u reconsider and give yourself an option to move forward if you can conquer your nerves... Everyone gets nervous. Maybe talk to your surgeon or a therapist. Good luck to you....
  17. Consider yourself lucky as hell, I came out of surgery hungry!!! I had surgery on 5/13 and on 5/20 was allowed to begin soft foods and let me tell you there is definitely restriction on how much I can eat but I am eating 5 times a day and I am always hungry not so much in the mornings but moving throughout the day definitely hungry but I am walking 3 to 4 miles per day so doctor said normal due to exercising.. So, enjoy your lack or hunger as long as you are not doing harm to yourself. Good luck and keep us posted..
  18. Just make sure you don't go overboard with super high fat fast foods, but I would stick to the instructions as close as possible... Good luck to you...
  19. YES AND IT WAS THE BEST DECISION I MADE... I started on the treadmill about 2 months before gettin on the treadmill about 5 days per week. The last month I did 30 straight days on the treadmill, I was told by my surgeon that lessons chances of issues during surgery and basically gets your blood flowing and it's helps with recovery... I had surgery on 5/13 and I am already back on the treadmill yesterday 5/18.... No complication and weight coming off, so I vote for yes get on the treadmill everyday... Hope this helps...
  20. I had to do a 7-day diet and I did cheat the first day but I think you definitely need to get atleast 5 or 6days of straight liquid diet before surgery to ensure everything is good inside. 6days worked for me...
  21. Only told my father, and I don't plan to tell anyone else... I am a very private person and was before VSG and will always be a private person. I don't think it's anyone else's business unless you have a desire to tell people.. 75% of people are negative and I choose not to deal with negative people who smile in your face and talk _____ behind your back, I'm so over people and there personal opinions about my life... So no issue if you tell everyone or you are a private person and want to keep your business to urself.... Good luck and hope this helps....
  22. I was advised by my surgeon that all the liquids in the beginning are considered liquids, so he said I wouldn't have to worry until I started the next phase next week... So to answer your question it is liquids. Good luck to you....
  23. I took 2 weeks but had surgery on 5/13 and honestly could go back this Monday 5/20!!! Just a little pain in my stomach in the incisions and when I sneeze.. I’m chillin til 5/28 and then go back. It’s more of an individual thing based on pain and the type of job u have.. Good Luck to everyone!!!
  24. I walked 3 times on surgery day, the next day I walked 4 times and was discharged on that day. I walked 20 minutes this morning on the treadmill at home.. Surgery was 5/13/2019 hope this helps
