I set MFP primarily for the grams of Protein and carbs and let the MFP program calculate the fats. I use olive oil regularly and butter when I want it. I'd rather use butter than manufactured margarine...I don't care who makes it....it manufactured!

80 g Protein, 60 g carbs, 30 g fat and 10g Fiber. At 800 calories it's 40/30/30 % I don't think healthy fats are bad, they keep your skin and hair nice and keep you full longer. I love avocado, nut butters, olives and olive oil and my new favorite, rice bran oil.

It has taken some fiddling but my body does better with 30%Protein, 45% carbs and th difference in fats. but it is very good carbs, no Pasta, no potato, no corn, only a tiny amount of whole wheat bread products, and only the sugar that is in foods.

still i need 1700+ calories a day so that is 150+ grams of protein--and it is a challenge to get it all in each day.

if i drop below that amount i stop losing weight ( go figure).

(of course i do exercise 8 to 10 hours a week now that my knee doesn't hurt.)

experiment around a bit and see what works best for you.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
