Hi Everyone,

I am a fellow lap-bander (banded October '09) and I use MyFitnessPal.com to track my foods, exercise and weight loss goals. It's a great tool. Are any of you members? It is free, if you are interested.

If you are members or become members, what do you think of becoming "buddies" on this site so we can look at what each other eats and excercise, etc. for help and tips?

Reply here or PM me if you're interested. I can give you my email address and you can look it up on Myfitnesspal.com so we can be linked.

Be well,

Renee

Ejd1024 - Yes, you can bypass it by changing your Goals under MYHOME

I use fitbit and link to MFP. I love the barcode scanner and the way you can track either protein, fat, calories, fiber, sodium, carbs, etc. I know my sodium is good so I changed my setting to start tracking my fiber to get a better idea of my net carbs.

I love looking at the food diaries for those that share to compare and get some good ideas!

I'm threecrows on MFP. Still a month out from surgery, but looking for some inspirational friends.

Please add me everyone

Do I just need to turn off my goal weight? I'd like to track still but without that popup. Thanks for your help

I am ejd1024. Hope Noone minds if I add them..always good to see what people are eating to get ideas for daily protein intake

I would love some MFP friends! My name is: lcrobe

I'm still pre-op. I plan to start sharing my diary when I have my surgery on the 15th.

Add me please!

Also, it really helps with food and meal ideas if you share your food diary.

Play with it until you hit what you want to do, just turn off the auto stuff

My surgery is January 8th. I'm only drinking protein shakes and clear liquids so i'm not tracking anything right now. I will very soon though! I'm also keeping a diary blog. If anyone is interested my blog can be found at www.findingsassy.com. We can all do this!!

Please add me to fitness pal. Crazygirlmarrero13

On MFP I have noticed that every day it is telling me that I am not meeting my goal for intake and that it could prevent me from losing. I simply CAN NOT take in what it says I am alotted, nor do I care to! Is there any way to tell it that I have a much smaller caloric intake goal now that I am a bari patient? Or do I just have to keep ignoring what it's telling me??

Alex I'd love to see a fitness app that had these things: My fitness pal doesn't allow you to input what time you ate a meal. That would be a nice feature. It syncs with my Jawbone Up which I like. It also doesn't allow you to delete favorite foods. They seem to be stuck there forever and that is not good. If your new app addressed those things that would be great.
