I've lost nothing in 4 weeks... I think my problem is not drinking 64 fl ozs of Water, making sure I have 60-70 grams of Protein and also counting my calories. I'm basically not eating or drinking much so I think my body is just getting used to the way I eat. I've read my post op diet package and there is nothing on there about how many calories per day... Can someone tell me please? Had surgery dec 9th lost 48 lbs

I asked my NUT a couple of weeks ago and she said not to worry about calories, just Protein and Water. That said, I am shooting for around 800 a day.

My NUT didn't want to give me a number but finally realized I had to have a number :). She told me at least 1200 but closer to 1400 for my body size. I struggle with getting that many cals because I feel guilty. She tells me I would have lost a lot more if I would eat enough cals. I am now trying to hit at least 1200. I also drink at least 64 iz of Water, but usually hit 80+. I shoot for at least 85 g Protein as well.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
