How Many Calories Per Day?



Recommended Posts

So I haven't had my surgery yet (booked Dc 12) so don't know what it's like -- have a question though-- are you ever hungry with that little amount of calories?? -- not knowing what to expect!

I'm never hungry... not once since surgery! Now that I'm not in ketosis anymore my body tells me when it's been four or five hours since eating. Its hard to describe. Not hunger or pain and not really low blood sugar. Just a vague feeling. Maybe still head hunger which is very real. But no, no true hunger.

What do you eat/drink to get that much Protein in a day? Any suggestions would be WONDERFUL!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
