Idk. A little confused. Nutritionist says I need to be at 2100 cal a day to maintain a pregnancy. I think she's wrong and maybe the number should be 1200.

Anyway I had 1/2 honey turkey sandwich and diced peaches.

1200 doesn't really seem high enough....2100-2500 is about average for a normal/non-RNY Patient to have a healthy weight gain during pregnancy. I would imagine you're AT LEAST 1500-1800 and will still lose weight, but if the pros say 2100.....I don't think I'd focus so much on quantity as quality though.....make sure you're getting your Protein and dairy and fresh fruits and veggies....yup, sounds like you're going to be eating all day long!!!!

A second opinion might not be a bad idea. I know you don't want to go too high and jeopardize the weight loss, but right now you have to make sure the little one is well fed :) there will be plenty of time after he/she is born to lose more weight.

I agree but most women over eat when pregnant we don't need that much more calories

Ugh tho, your surgery wasn't that long ago. How can you possibly get that many calories in?! Maybe...I don't know.

Shoulda, did you do exercise over the 9 months? What do you think was the biggest help to you? What a successful weight loss story!

I was told only 200-300 extra calories a day. That's it, my doctor compared the extra calories needed as the equivalent of a snickers bar.

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
