How many Calories? Protein? Carbs?



Recommended Posts

Just curious as to what everyone is doing, thanks.

You really should take this question to your doctor or nutritionist. We are all different and getting a bunch of varied data will not answer your question. What is right for you is what you should do. n No comparisons, PERIOD!

I agree with Chez, you need to talk to a nutritionist. Everyone has their own idea what works and what doesn't, and at the end of the day, what anyone else is doing is irrelevant. All that matters is that you're doing what's best for you.

See your nutritionist. They will help you establish food and calorie guidelines to fit your specific needs.

We all get different plans from our Dr. Mine personally is 1000cal & 60 gr of Protein.< /p>

What's your plan?

I haven't been told yet although back in the day when I would diet it all had to do with my height weight n gender. The paper work I got from my hospital says

800-100 calories daily initially (I've been eating bout 1200 but am also working out)

80-100 grams of Protein (I usually have 60)

0-8 grams of carbs per meal

0-8 grams of fat per meal

Max 1000 grams of sodium

64-80 oz Water

Vitamins ( as suggested by your doctor)

I am not telling you to follow my plan n can't imagine a man eating as little as this but this is what the hospital gave me. I just started having solids one week ago n my weight has stayed the same since so I have totally upped my exsersize hoping this will help. I am going to make an appointment with my nutritionist to see if this is good for my height n weight. My fitness pal tells me I'm eating too little n that I should eat all my calories including the ones I worked off but it also doesn't know I have the band. I also want to ask my nut about our bodies going into starvation mode n how that works. I don't follow these rules I posted to a T but I just wanted to share this info with you.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
