Everyone is different. I was taking in about 800-1000 but it all depends on what you eat.

Really depends on your activity level and size. A couch potato is going to need far less than someone who is in the gym 5 days a week.

What do you consider "losing weight"? 10 pounds a month?

How active are you? How active are you willing to be?

Starting month 5 and calories are 800-1200 depending on my exercise level. Closer to 800 on the days I don't exercise and closer to 1200 on hard days at the gym.

My NUT told me ideally they want around 1200 calories for me by 6 months and I am pretty much there most days now but it sure took a lot of work to get there.

I will be 3 months out on the 10th and average between 800-1000 calories a day.

I have a sedentary lifestyle, with half an hour of slow walk (1 mile ) and some exercise for 15 minutes.

10 pounds every month will be good enough for me.

Now what do you suggest ?

That's all that I am losing monthly and sometimes less which is actually okay for me. I think if you are sedentary I personally would try somewhere between 700-1000 daily?

      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.
