About how many calories a day are you guys eating? About how many did the Drs office say you guys should be at? Just curious...

Dr and dietician never said calorie what i should eat just Protein and fluids. And everyday the app says to few calories oh well i am use to it now.

Right now...I was told not to focus on calories but to get in fluids and Protein. I finally got my dietician to tell me between 600-800 calories a day. I am four weeks post op.

My dr. never said anything about calories they are guiding you by eating ounces and a minimum of 64 grams of Protein a day and 64 oz. of Water a day.

My dr never said a calorie count either . Try to get. 50-60 grams of Protein, and 64 0z of Water. I try to make every meal be protein, and sometimes I struggle with water cause I use Protein Shakes in between meals to actually get all my protein. The calorie count is not

Really correct either cause I can not always get the correct volume count of food. Like I can't eat

A whole egg, but I dont get a choice for 1/3 of an egg.

Wasn't really wanting a Drs calorie count was just wondering what mfp was saying. Also you czn change the serving sizes in the app. For instance if you only ate 1/3 of an egg...where it says how many servings it'll say 1, you can change that to .33 to reflect 1/3 or s serving and it will recalculate you at that serving size. I know calories aren't important...I was just wondering where everyone was at. I actually only use the app for the purpose of counting my protein....
