Help! I Need Help To Find A Low Starch 1200 Calorie....



Recommended Posts

Hi. I am just starting my 6 month per surgery weight loss diet. Can anyone suggest a low starch 1200 calories diet which has 60 carbs per day? I would really appreciate the help! Thanks!

have you signed up on myfitnesspal.com or sparkpeople to log your food. fitnesspal breaks down all the categories and makes it fairly easy to eat correctly.

mine is set up to calculate Fiber, Protein, fat and carbs. I log everything I eat and am able to keep track of it as the day goes on.

I don't think you need a "diet" to follow, just eat fresh foods, no processed box foods, no chips or Cookies. drink lots of Water and you'll start seeing a difference. you will also feel good!

You will probably have more than a few 'ut oh' moments/days where you have things/quantities you shouldn't. Logging makes it so we can see our mistakes and make the necessary adjustments. Sort of like athletes who record video of themselves and study their form in slow motion. We're all unique, so trial and error is par for the course. Just keep at it! :)

I thought I was not eating a lot and I couldn't explain why my weight loss had stopped. I started logging my food at myfitnesspal and I have lost 7pounds in about 2weeks. I could probably do better if it wasn't for my naughty weekends. :D

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
