Calorie Intake Goal????



Recommended Posts

Know that some don't count calories and some do. I am working harder to get to goal with exercising and eating one cup per meal. What kind of calories are you eating if you do count them. I have not up until about two weeks ago. I can't seem to get more than 1,000. But my fitness pal says eating too low...what to do? Just add Protein shakes?

I have heard of Liquid Protein you can add to your Water, or even Powered Protein from Herbalife, I used to put that in my shaked for even more protein..

I personally love myfitnesspal it helped me lose 20 lbs pre-op and 80 lbs post-op and I haven't had a fill. I'm always under my calorie goal. I just make sure I get enough Protein.< /p>

Thank you so much. I love my fitness pal font know how to use it other than working on my diary and exercise. Haven't added any persons. But I sure like the way it tracks anything! I'm going to go with 1,000 calories and really focus on Protein.

Special K has protien lemonaid or punch flavor to add to Water and has 4 Protein. Really taste great too. I am trying to keep at 1200 a day. I need more routine workouts. Remember you can always add more movement in your day to help.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
