Sorry it took me so long to reply, I forgot I had actually posted something instead of just lurking like I normally do 😅 I try to stay under 1000 cal. a day, some days I manage, some days I don't. I'm gonna be honest, I dont exercise routinely yet, just normal, routine activities that have gotten easier like mowing the yard and gardening. Head hunger is a real problem for me and some days I snack more than i should, but i still keep steadily losing about 3 lbs a week. I suppose I've just been really lucky that the bypass seems to be working well for me
