What rustles your jimmies - Part II

[Wyomann]

Your not off mark at all. That is the main treatment. Way back when my son was 9 months old they offered to do a biopsy of his colon. I said ummmmm.... No. It would only get me a firm diagnosis. No help, just pain for the baby. I don't want to medicate him. More than anything I need help navigating through the mess of information and determining what he reacts to and how to manage the reactions when he DOES have them. Nutritionist and new dr. Steps 1 and 2.

Penny, the allergist said that Cain is one of only 2 people he has ever diagnosed with EG in his 30 yrs practicing. I guess it's a relatively rare genetic condition. From what I have read anyway. I am thinking about calling sick kids in Toronto to see if they can at least point in the right direction.

Definitely need to consult more people. I had a thing with my eso****us when I was 6 mo old. I couldn't keep any food down and would throw up everything. I was super skinny and basically starving to death and the doctor was trying all sorts of things and finally found a medicine that worked or they were going to have to do surgery. When I came into his office for my 9month visit the doctor almost crapped himself because I weighed 30lbs. He couldn't believe how big I had gotten.

Thank god for good docs.

My Fitness Pal has completely ruslted my effing jimmies. Here's why:

It tells me:
Total Cals: 1446
P: 140
C: 137
F: 45

And I'm thinkin', "Sweet... I'm a little over on protein and carbs, but under on fat." Then I get to thinking that I'm not enough under on fat to compensate. So I get out my calculator. And this is what my calculator tells me:

P: 140g = 560 cals
C: 137g = 548 cals
F: 45g = 405 cals
Grand fukking total: 1513!!!!!

WTF MFP? How long have you been doing this to me?!?!?! Anyone else having this issue? I know you mens in here are prolly like "what's 50 cals gonna do?" But when you're on a 12 week cut it will make a freakin' difference!!!!

It might be a conversion error. The calories might be right but the conversions might be wrong. I've never double checked. Might be time to go back to pen and paper.

[thebigzakbowski]

Fuk a treadmill. Srs. I do ~25min HIIT 2x/week.

I'm more bitter about the principle. I'm going back and adding up a lot of these and they're all freakin' wrong. I don't understand. Why MFP, why you do this to me?

I tried that and I got a rash, treadmills...you never know where they've been

Yeah I thought of that. It isn't a consistent 50 cals off, per se... but about. Perhaps I shouldn't trust every schmuck that can type foods in the "dictionary".

Well I have an appointment with a naturopath (First visit $160 +tx, wtf, I had no idea's Vegans were all rich!!) I also have an appointment with his GP. I can't switch dr's apparently because of the dr shortage. So I am going to make her find me a specialist that deals with this stuff.

I really appreciate the support guys, I just needed to vent. I am crazy frustrated. Especially now that I did some more research (On sites that I didn't find the last time around) and I could have been doing this in a much more controlled manner and with much less pain for my son. Both appointments are next week so, here's hoping I can get some help and direction.

I would avoid medications as much as possilbe as they lead to future side effects, especially on a child. My baby boy was the same first 6 months and could hardly keep any food, baby formula down, would spit it up minutes after he ate, then was hungry again, so I kept feeding him again and a gain little by little, oz by oz. He is much better now and is doing fine.

Try giving him different foods as much as you can, experiment with foods, he is two years old, there is no reason that he cant eat meats, veggies etc. He doesnt necessarily need to be fed fruits all the time.

[Spartanbaziotis]

Little one has been sick a lot recently so I sent some money to get blood-work done. It came back that she is anemic. She turns six in April, which is when her bio-dad had cancer as a boy. We are gonna get more blood work in a month just to be sure she doesn't have cancer. Scared freaking sh*tless=me.

Oh trust me, I give him EVERYTHING I can. He eats everything except what is on the reaction list. And he's a great eater too, he loves his food. I do hate denying him the dairy and fruit. So good for him, and yet his body thinks it's poison and tells it to GTFO. Both of my kids were breastfed only and by the time that 9 months came around and I hadn't had 2 hrs of straight sleep since he had been born, I was ready to snap. My dr put him on reflux meds when he was really little. But obviously they made no difference. Then she told me to go ahead and eat baked goods because as long as the dairy protein was cooked, it wouldn't effect Cain (BTW, I had to be on a 100% dairy free diet while breastfeeding. The smallest amount of dairy had him so sick it was insane). I had to tell HER that her information was wrong. That was when I gave up with her.

Wow. Try not to freak though. It does no good.

I pretty much assume the cals are right and the macros are wrong. I figure the general population is more concerned with the totals rather than anything else. If you search "nutrition data" in the food often people have added entries from that database which is supposed to be one of the more accurate ones from what I've read.

All right, maybe I'll relax.

I may have been a little hangry when I posted about this.





A little = a fuk ton

[DaniGrrl]

Bubs, I checked my MFP just out of curiosity and it was 41 calories lower than it should have been when I did the calculations based off the macros. I'm bulking so not a huge thing for me but when you're cutting and every calorie counts...how annoying!!

[DaniGrrl]

Jimmies rustled by a stupid incompetent secretary who didn't want to do her job so I am the one that got screwed out of what is probably a pretty decent amount of money. Perhaps if she had even an ounce of common sense, this would not have happened. Moron.

On a good note, I was given permission to basically tell off the attorney(her boss) when we usually have to kiss their azz no matter what BS they pull on us. And it felt good - even though it wasn't particularly his fault.

[sy2502]

Jimmies rustled because cutting and muscles are looking smaller.
Jimmies rustled because my weight loss is slowing down and I can see a plateau looming at the horizon.
Jimmies rustled because cutting makes me suck at the gym.

[Meatros]

Jimmies Rustled because I strained my lower back warming up on deadlift.

Can't get up from a chair without a sharp electric pain radiating from my azz to my hamstring.

[fldhkybnva]

Jimmies rustled because overnight my gym has all new equipment - wtf!! The old stuff worked fine and included all of the basic things. It'd be great if they updated but kept it a functional place to do a real workout. Also, I've never been a fan of Cybex machines but either way, I'd like at least a tricep push down with a back pad back...it seems like a pretty standard piece of equipment a gym should have.

But... but... think of that brand new inner thigh machine!!!

[fldhkybnva]

But... but... think of that brand new inner thigh machine!!!

You nailed it! It's front and center. I use mostly free weights but rely on a few machines and the triceps push down is not even a machine but a simple pulley system which is a must have. Also, now I"m completely confused as I have to relearn a weight system for the machines that I do use as it seems that most of these machines don't actually list a real weight but the weights are listed as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. I don't lift by level, can I get a kg/lb?

Maybe you can find a creative way of using the inside thigh machine with your arms and still get a good triceps workout? Be creative!!!

[IrishLassie78]

Jimmies rustled because my Excel sheets have randomly changed some of the formulas and formats I use and my data keeps getting effed up. Seriously, Excel has to be the glitchiest software program in existence. Followed closely by **********, which also has gremlins in it. And this is all giving me a massive headache which is rapidly approaching migraine territory which will be a lot of fun during the presentation I have to give in my Marketing class later tonight.

I'm sure I'll come up with quite a few new "exercises." I knew it was bad when a similar "I take lifting seriously type" texted me last night to ask what the hell happened to the gym, then found out for myself this morning. Perhaps, there is more equipment on the way...

Hey now, them aductors and abductors is impordant.

Are you sure you just don't have a formula that depends on other cells that are changing? It would be pretty weird for a formula to change without anyone manually doing it.

[IrishLassie78]

They do depend on other cells but I haven't changed anything in those cells. For some reason it likes to randomly changed the cells referenced in the formula. When I first started this job a little over a year ago I noticed a bunch of the formulas were screwed up because the wrong cells were being referenced so I went back and meticulously fixed everything. It could be that I missed something, but this also isn't the first time I've had something like this happen with other Excel workbooks. It could also be something is getting effed up when I open the file from my laptop at home to work on something, save it, and then reopen it at work. My laptop at home is a PC platform and I use a Mac at work. My laptop at home is also a total POS...

[Spartanbaziotis]

Wow. Try not to freak though. It does no good.

Trying not to. It makes me feel even more powerless being 1200 miles away. I mean I know that I wouldn't be able to do anything much anyway, but it blows. All I can do is keep sending money....well, the little that I have lol...Dr. is damn expensive.

[Wyomann]

It could be the cross platform thing. I've noticed certain things in the Mac version of Word that isn't the same as in the actual Windows version of Word.

This was on my ******** yesterday. Hopefully this wasn't you IrishLass

It probably is... Last semester I used my work computer to create a Power Point presentation because it's so much easier on 27" iMac than on a 13" lap top. It was beautiful. I saved it on my flash drive, went to class, plugged it in the computer in the classroom, opened the file, and instead of my beautifully formatted slides, everything was skewed too high and in some places I actually had wingdings instead of actual text. So I turned off the computer and just pulled my presentation out of the top of my head so no one would be distracted by the crap on the projector screen. I thanked God that day for giving me the gift of supreme bulls&*tting ability...
