I have a question about diet.

[1sunnuri 77]

I'm 10 weeks post-op and I'm still trying to get a grip on the proper way to eat. I have lost 40 pds but seem to be stuck. I find I can easily get in 1000 calories a day. Then I exercise bringing my net to about 750 to 800 a day. Can someone give me some ideas of ur menus for the day eating low carb. Also if u eat low carb do u worry about calories?

Why don't you go back and see your NUT and let them work with you if you're struggling.

I do not have a NUT. I am a selfpay.

I try to stay under 40-60 carbs a day! I will eat a Greek yogurt, an egg scrambled with cheese, lunch meat and a few slices of cheese, Protein bar, Protein shake...all examples of breakfast!

lunch and or dinner...lunch meat with cheese, chicken salad, chili, chicken nuggets, any kind of meat (except steak and pork chops, not until 6 months out) pimento cheese with a few crackers, broiled fish, any kind of chicken, soft cooked veggies...I like green Beans, broccoli, etc...vegetable soup!! I can't have raw fruits or veggies until 6 months!!!

Hope this helps
