Long story short, my practice lost their NUT. I’ll be seeking out a new one next month, but there was A LOT of information I was NOT given, so I’m asking for some serious help.
I was using the Baritastic app, but I’ve seen everyone on the boards talking about how My Fitness Pal is so much better because it tracks so much more. So, I just bit the bullet and purchased the premium version.
all I can say is HOLEY MOLEY!!! So many questions and information! And I have NO IDEA what I’m doing.
I realize that every plan is different, but the only information I was given by my previous NUT was to track fluid, calories and protein. But I see the majority of you are tracking all kinds of things. Micros, macros, carbs and so much more.
In lieu of my NUT being gone, can you guys help me out with what you’re tracking and what your daily goals are? Like I said, I realize everyone is different, but I really need some idea about what to track and what my goals should be. Like, what is your max carb intake? Micros? Macros? I’m so lost at the moment. Any help you can provide would be so very appreciated.
I’ll let you know my stats as well:
Female, 34 years old.
5’6”
HW: 311
SW: 256 (5/10/18 VSG)
CW: 222
GW: 145
I’ve lost 49 inches since surgery, but I still have trouble keeping solids down. I’m basically sticking to the soft foods and liquids for right now. I get very few calories and protein at the moment, but I’m hitting 64oz or more of fluid each day.
And I just want to take this moment to say thank you so very much to all of you for your constant advice and support. I don’t know what I’d do with you guys. Even the tough love I sometimes get is invaluable.
