What are you eating/doing Friday?
Hi Ginnny,
I am sorry that you are struggling, but I too think what Daisy has posted is so inspirational...thanks Daisy!. So, at the moment I am following myfitnesspal and tracking all of my food. I am pre-surgery and I am not allowed to go below BMI of 35 (I have 2 comorbidities) or they will not allow me to have the surgery. I was told this at the orientation. I am still waiting for a surgery date. So, this puts me in a precarious position, I want to begin following a plan to prepare myself for life after surgery and to be as healthy as possible for surgery, but I can't loose too much weight. I have been struggling with this since my orientation (last July). When I went on myfitnesspal, I adjusted my calories so that I would lose weight very slowly, so that by the time that I think that I may be called for surgery, my BMI will be just slightly above 35. I tell you all of this because, I have set my calories to 1800 and this is is suppose to ensure that I lose 1 pound a week (according to myfitnesspal). Anyway, these numbers do not seem to jive with 1800 that you have been told to for maintenance. I think I would go with Daisy's numbers. I want to have the success that she has had so I would do what she is doing.
