Logging food & exercise may be the answer......

So I'm now just over 3 weeks post op (revision of band to sleeve), in the first 9 days I lost 9 pounds, since then not a darn thing which is pretty frustrating so early on! :(

So having read so much on this forum about "myfitnesspal" I have decided to give it a go and already I feel more in control.

I like logging stuff, like my weight graph etc and I hoping that this might help me to focus a bit more on what exactly I'm eating. I haven't logged my food intake since my Slimming World days and it's much more high tech now!

Can anyone give me a guide to what Protein, carbs etc I should be aiming for and is it possible to tailor the details on myfitnesspal to this? I have looked but can't find a way.

I think I read about 60g protein and 50g carbs, does this sound about right.

(I don't have a nut, they are pretty rare around here and my dr only gave me the most basic of info.)

Onwards with my journey, I hope that this will end my early stall and get me on my way towards goal again.

Just wanted to add that I find this site fascinating and the information & stories very helpful and have become quite addicted :)
