BeeBlueHeron 87 Posted September 1, 2012 Six days post op here. Good for you!!! I feel like I'm "eating" too much liquid, but I added it all up today on My Fitness Pal and it's still under 700 calories, so I guess the band is working already! Stay hydrated and take it easy.

Heathermarie0407 67 Posted September 1, 2012 Good for u. May this be an easy journey for u. I am 4days post op and can't wait to see results just need more energy but that will come with time congrats Right after my surgery when I talked to my doctors office I told them I had no energy! The nurse said tht I probably wasn't getting enough protien, and to add a shake. So if your cleared for full liquids yet you might consider doing that.

VegasMommaof1 10 Posted September 1, 2012 How many calories should be consumed post op? Is there a certain number you should reach? Or is calories no longer the question, it's all about Protein? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heathermarie0407 67 Posted September 2, 2012 Most doctors will say don't worry about losing wieght so early on, just worry about healing. That being said most also recommend sugar free products. And yes getting protien in is very important. In a few weeks when your able to eat more you want to make good food choices. I personally don't have a problem staying under 1200-1000 calories a day.
