Daily Total Calories

Some of those numbers are so much higher than mine. I am to get 60 G protein' date=' keep fats and sugars low and not worry about the rest. I end up making it to 60 with a glass of oveltine many nights. I also add half a scoop of unjury to yogurt, Soup, etc, to get there as I don't enjoy the Protein drinks. My goal is basically 60 now and goes down to 50 g at maintenance. I shoot for around 600 cals, but don't worry if I'm just a bit more.[/quote']

Yeah, my doc pretty much said the same thing to me. We'll worry about calories later. It's a little hard to ignore when using MFP since it focuses on calories. Every day I get the message that I'm eating too few calories, but I just care about the Protein intake.

I'm getting in more than 500-800 gosh I wish I could be back at those numbers!! I'm 3 1/2 months out and I'm eating 1,000-1,200.

Where do you log in Water intake in MyFitnessPal? I can't find icon, pull-down, etc. I'm doing great thanks to logging all my food (drinks, I should say as I'm still on stage 2 liquids!) in MFP. My calories are close to 600 and Protein close to 80. I must say (and I wish I could get paid, because I've said it before) that Unjury brand UNFLAVORED whey protein has saved my life! Zero flavor-21 grams protein per scoop. Between meals I make a batch in my GNC shaker cup (1 scoop protein and Crystal lite-any flavor, they have a lot now! Water.) I fill a Rubbermaid 24 oz. Water bottle 1/2 way with ice, add my protein/CL mix and fill til top with water. One of these between Breakfast and lunch and one in the afternoon gibes me 42 grams, breakfast shake is about 30 (Premier ready to drink from Costco). This enables me to get plenty if protein in before dinner so I can have what I want without worrying that I still need a lot to make my daily quota of 60-80. Whatever my lunch and dinner is, I had 72 grams so I'm right in the middle. My calories are staying low too, which I like -fir now anyways, once the Holidays start, I doubt I'll be staying that low!

I stopped counting. I was becoming obsessive with it. I barely keep track of Protein but know that I get in well over 80g a day.
