Need Advise Asap!!! Feel Like Crap!

I am on mushy food stage.... Today my mum made me scrambled eggs cooked with olive oil, it was soooooooooo oily but I ate it as I was hungry and tired. Felt abit sick after but it eventually went down. Will this effect my weightloss? Will I put on pounds? Is olive oil fattening? Am worried I might put on weight because of this oily meal..... Need advise! Was that meal a choice healthy eventhough it was oily?

    First.... be calm. One meal isn't going to make you pack on the pounds. Second, I would start getting in the habit of looking at ingredients. We can't guess how much oil was used or even how many

No that meal was loaded with protein. The olive oil should not hurt you. Just let mom know that it made you feel sick because it was so greasy. Ask her to use spray oil and them use liquid butter spray like "I can't believe it is not butter"

You should be fine as long as you are not loading up on carb mushies. If you check out my profile, I puts on items I bought some plates that allow me to measure without the measuring cups for my husband so he does not over feed me.

First.... be calm. One meal isn't going to make you pack on the pounds.

Second, I would start getting in the habit of looking at ingredients. We can't guess how much oil was used or even how many eggs were eaten. However good food choices will be crucial to your weight loss. I've used an app called Lose It! since the day I got home from hospital and it's helped so much. At a glance, I can see immediately if a food is a good choice or not for me to be eating based on it's nutrients and calories.

Lastly, have you met with a nutritionist? If not, I highly recommend doing so, specifically one that deals with bariatric patients. They can teach you how to make good food choices and set you up on guidelines that are realistic for your lifestyle.

Best wishes.

Thank you soo much yh I will download it now.... I had two eggs and she poured 5 big spoons of olive oil :( hope I don't, I am just worried :( don't want to put on weight :( again

I agree that's it's a good idea to track ur food. I use myfitnesspal...it's online or a phone app too.

One meal isn't going to make u gain a ton of weight. I've made bad choices a few times, but it's about moving on from that and making good choices from then on. My mom was a bit on the side of adding a lot of oil an such, but I just had to be super honest and tell her that it's healthier for me with less oil, etc. just let family members know and they will understand. Best of luck!

I use MyFitnessPal as well and LOVE it!! It's just as important to make sure you're getting enough!! Don't sweat one meal...this is a learning process...you'll get the hang of it ;)
