11Day Post Op, How Many Calories Do U Hv A Day?



Recommended Posts

Depending on what I eat, probably around 5 to 700. Not really certain but I am 19 days out and on mushies and I have had some Soups from commercial restuarants that I have pureed and I am sure are not the lowest calorie wise. Really hard to tell.

I am 26 days out and i usually get around 300...im not sure what we are supposed to have but i try to make sure i eat as much Protein as i can get. I dont get the recommended amount of that either...sometimes it seems like i have had way to much to eat but still the calories and protein are low...guess it depends on what you are eating.

Good deal I usually get around 300 to 500 cal a day and just wanting to make sure I'm on track. Your doctor said 600 cal on the burning fat phase...... how long is the fat burning stage? One months six months nine months?

I'm not sure. I think it's just for as long as you're still losing...not yet at goal. Once you're at goal and want to maintain it's 800-1200 and you have to play around with calories to figure out how much your body needs.

      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.
