Wondering how many calories I'm supposed to be getting a day? Just had surgery on 2/5. Only taking in 300-400 right now.

Sounds about right if you just had surgery :)

I'm several months out and I take in anywhere from 500 to 700 a day.

Just make sure your calories are mostly from Protein

I think at this point you just need to worry about getting in Water and Protein. I didn't count calories until soft foods and I think I was only getting about 400 calories at that time.

Really? Wow! I have not had mine yet. Do you feel hungry or tired from not having much food?

I feel tired & weak..with just liquids started my Protein 4oz shakes with soy milk on Friday... Hungry?! haven't felt that yet I have no desire to eat at all..I hate the smell of food it makes me nausea I guess because I'm still fresh out of surgery?! I Had my surgery on Monday 2/4
