OK, so I started logging my food again because it has been a while. I was assuming I was still between 600-800 cals a day. Ha!! Not so much...

After 2 days of logging, it looks like I magically stop eating at 900 cals. I even ate completely different things on both days and still came up wthin12 cals of each other. Very interesting. I will admit my heart started to pound a little when I saw I was at 900. But, then I talked myself off the ledge because 900 is still very restrictive. I have to eat what I am eating to keep my energy up. I am feeling so much better now than I did when I was getting 600 cals a day, so I can't be concerned about it. I am still losing 1-2 pounds a week which is fantastic!

On a side note, I have 14 pounds to go to move from "overweight" to "normal weight" according to my BMI. Holy moly - wont' that be a great day!!

Keep on truckin', everybody!

I think 900 cals a day is spot on... with a little 'bounce' either side. If my intake goes below 700 - 750 I literally feel shaky and weak... we gotta do what is right for us... well done on the steady weight loss and keep up the good work!!

I have to tell you...I have been eating 900 to 1000 calories a day. I track but my doctor does not require it. I have had a couple stalls but overall I am happy with my weight loss. I do exercise. In 4 months, I am down 67 pound. Just my opinion but I think if it's too low, I won't lose weight.

You are doing fantastic! I am hovering at 800, but seem to want to move towards 900 the last week or so... I am losing a little faster eating a little bit more...

Some lose more with less and some lose less with more - and some lose more with more and some lose less with less. B)

Everyone just has to find what works for each of us... as we are individuals - just like everyone else.

So if you're only to eat 3x a day .. HOW on earth are y'all getting in 800-900 calories? What's your secret??

      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.
