7 weeks out . Usually get about 57 gm oh Protein and about 57 oz fluids. Trying harder to get 60 and 64. Soft Proteins still.

I'm 12 weeks out and still can't eat a lot, volume wise. Example of my day, while travelling from NY to GA for a family gathering, last Saturday: 6 am (as soon as I'm awake): 1/2 Premier chocolate Protein Shake (pre-made 8 oz. Costco). 8:30 am (Buffet Breakfast @ hotel): 2 tsps. of cheese omlette (eggs don't like me still!), a tiny bite of a biscuit (too dry!) and the egg white only from a hard-boiled egg, 1/2 of a small coffee with pumpkin Creamer and skim milk (creamer tastes too sweet to me without skim milk added now). Between Bkfst and lunch and Lunch and Dinner: Remainder of shake and 1/2 of a Total Protein Bar. Lunch: Campbell's white chicken and bean Soup (1/4 cup serving of 2 1-cup serving can of soup) dinner (Buffet of hors d'ouevres): 1-1/2 slices of turkey and 2 slices of American cheese. snack before bed: 1 Laughing Cow Light Cheese Spread. It doesn't seem like a lot (because it isn't), but the point is, I was prepared with my shake and my bars so I could withstand the beast within me screaming to eat the mini hot dogs, quiches, pizzas, chicken, dips, bla bla bla at the party. I had a few rough days -- my will power and head hunger were both sorely tested on this holiday. But I survived. I'll weigh myself in the morning since we travelled home today and I hope I'm closer to my goal. The fact that I'm excited to weigh myself is a Christmas Miracle in and of itself. Who loses weight between Christmas and New Years...or between Thanksgiving and New Years, for that matter? We do...that's who! Happy, save and healthy New Year to everyone!

The day before yesterday I ate nothing...nada, so yesterday was a bit unusual. I had some spicy cheese with little oyster crackers, some chicken divan and maybe 1 tablespoon of lentils, diluted orange juice, 2 very tiny pieces of dark chocolate (41 calories), half a cherry Tomato and a small slice of cucumber, 1/2 cup beef stew, 1 glass diluted low calorie cranberry juice.< /p>

I'm 13 weeks out.

I would not go based on what other people are doing. Follow your doctor's advice and if you didn't get one, here is the basic formula: 600-800 calories, less than 40 grams of carbs, at least 80 grams of Protein and at a MINIMUM 64 oz of Water.

That being said a typical day for me looks like:

Breakfast - Protein shake

lunch - meat (I can't eat chicken right now but pretty much anything else) and some veggies

snack - Almonds or some other nuts

dinner - meat (2 to 4 oz, I can eat more seafood than I can other proteins) and veggies.

Snack - Protein if I need it

Make sure to take your Vitamins and get the Water in, those are two critical success factors. Also make sure to exercise, at least some walking.

I'm sorry, I neglected to add in my Vitamins and Water (plus the fact I do get my 60-80 grams of Protein in daily), per Keith's post. I think of my chewable vitamins as my "snacks" and I try to drink as much water with Crystal Light as possible. I'm finally able to drink a little bit of room temp. water without any additivies like Crystal Light, but I can't drink a lot at a time (I sure miss guzzling ice cold bottled water!).
