Not Meeing my Calorie needs

Is it bad not to reach the 1000 calorie diet when on the pre-surgery diet? This was my first day and only had about 700 calories and not interested in another shake. Thanks for your thoughts and experience.

I just finished my 2 week liquid diet and was told to try for 800 - 1000 calories and with the shakes, broth, and sugar free jell-0 I could hardly get to the 800 calories.. I lost 14 lbs during this period. I was averaging 3 shakes a day.. I couldn't drink 4 of them..Tomorrow morning I report to the hospital at 7 a.m, and I'm scheduled for my band procedure at 9:00. I hope this information helps you.. I found myself feigning for some food Saturday, with only 3days to go before my surgery date, and I ate about 10 potato chips.. (I wouldn't advise this) no problem, but really beat myself up about it.. I know look back to see what happened and I think I waited way to late in the morning to drink my shake and my hunger got out of control...

Best to you on your journey...

Thanks so much for the info. I guess I won't beat myself up about it. Who ever thought we would be concerned about not getting enough calories.

Good luck tomorrow and wishing you a speedy and easy recovery for u!
