1000 Calories



Recommended Posts

I just joined my fitness pal this week and it looks like I fm averaging 900 to 1000 calories a day at three months out. Is this normal? I noticed other sleevers set a goal of 700 to 800 a day... What is your calorie goal?

personally I think that that is perfect. I actually ate 1200-1400 a day after 3 months for weight loss. I maintain at about 1800-2000

LOL I just asked a similar question in MFP. I'm at 900 calories, the NUT suggests 1000+. I moved up to 1000 for a few days but it freaked me out! LOL. I am losing nicely and don't find myself too hungry (i have random days where I feel ravenous) so in sticking at 900 for now. I also exercise 4-5 times a week and burn between 400-500 calories with each of those workouts. There's no way I'd be able to do them eating 500-700 calories a day. I always "bank" my calories from exercise even though MFP tries to give them to you to use.

I see my NUT and NP in a week so I'll ask then.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
