My fitness pal question



Recommended Posts

Ok, I just signed up for my fitness pal, the ap on my phone. First of all, goal of 192g of carbs...huh? Anyway, how do I change my goals, calories, Protein, carbs to fit my needs? Also, it only shows me calories I've consumed for the day, how do I see all of it? Remember, I'm on my phone, not desktop.

Not sure about your phone capabilities, but I have an iPhone and could only change the food goal settings on my actual computer.

I could only change my calories intake on my phone,. go to the tab that shows the circle with the downward arrow , go to edit profile and then you can change your calorie goal, when you change that it also adjust how many carbs you should be eating, sugar ect.... note that I dont go by the carbs they are recomending way too many for me ... hope that helps

On the computer I was able to change the automatic distribution of calories to reflect the high Protein low carb settings I needed. Otherwise it wanted to keep changing the carb amounts to a higher amount. I'm 6 weeks out with a calorie limit of 800 aiming for 60-80 grams of protein, less than 40 of carbs.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
