Nine Month NUT appt. today and calorimeter test...

Okay, so I didn't know I wasn't supposed to drink coffee or eat before this appt.  But today I had my nine month appt. with the NUT and they test you to see how many calories you burn to know if you have a fast or slow metabolism.

Well, no offense but I think the machine was full of ****  If I burned 2981 calories every day without exercising I would be a toothpick. 

On another note I did learn how important exercise is.  Since I couldn't exercise for seven weeks after my hysterectomy I replaced 17 pounds of muscle with 11 pounds of FAT!! Not what I wanted to do.  So my muscle percentage used to be over 50% and now it's under. Still a lot for a woman, but more muscle means more calories burned. 

very interesting, thank you.  I am doing great, better then EVER on my exercise, OMG, I pumped up my one mile hill today with no problem, still no weight change,  but I feel a difference.  Your doing great, even with your "Hysterectomy vacation"  I dont' want to talk too fast, but i'm excited to go for my walks everyday, I can do this...

Congrats to you if you are burning over 2900 cals/day!  According to my gowearfit, I am lucky to burn 1800-1900/day!!!!!!  I WISH I was you!   lol!!!!   (My numbe is without exercising!)  But still!  

Just get back on your plan and I'm sure you'll do fine!  It's hard when you have another surgery or issue going on where you can't exercise...it sucks!  Trust me!  I know this ALL TOO WELL!!!!

I think my number was full of **** too. Mine said 2300 burned by sitting on my ass and that is so not true. The Go Wear Fit says about 1700 on a non active day. I didn't eat or drink before mine was done. I tend to not believe it.

Glad I paid and traveled for that! My fitbit says about the same as your GoWear. So, how's the sink hole?  Messing up your travel?

YES!!!!  What a pain in the A$$.  Now it takes 10 min longer to get to work...not good when I was always 10 min late anyway...LOL.

you know i never hear from dr. todders office. When do i go back to see her after my 6 week visit?? I am 5 months out and i have no idea when i check back in with the doctor.

You should have gone at 3 months and then again at six months. Somehow you have fallen off their radar. You should call EMMC Healthcare Mall and talk to Dayna!
