I consume about 500 per day which I think is too low but can't help it. You?

I'm 3 1/2 mths out and I eat less than 1,000. Rarely go over that. And I no longer do Protein shakes so all of thats just food

I eat on the higher side of everyone on here. I only have 22 lbs to goal (was a band revision) and I'm in no hurry, so I'd rather eat more and have less losses...

I think I am eating about 800 i don't know if that is too much. .
I cringe every time I see a thread that mentions calories...... I seem to be eating many more calories than most on here. I average 1200 I am less than 3 months out I have lost 70 pounds but my weight loss has slowed recently to a pound or two a week. I am eating clean very few carbs and drinking plenty of Water but compared to some on here I am gorging myself. The guys at work laugh at my meals. 6 ozs of lean meat for lunch. I would like feed back also

I'm three weeks out today, and I'm eating 600-750 per day. No more than one 10 oz Protein Drink per day.

It sounds like it is working for you. I don't think loosing more than 2 lbs a week is healthy. Congratulations!

I'm 6 months post-op and get about 1000 a day. Really between 800-1200 depending on my day, and if I get Breakfast in or not.

I'll be 3 weeks out on monday. .. if I get 400 cals I consider it a good day. I can't even imagine doubling that! The extra energy a lack of shaky-ness that comes from consuming calories would be nice though :)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
