Calorie intake

[skinnyphotog 5]

For those that are pregnant, How many calories are you getting each day? Do you have a daily goal or just listen to your body?

Are you gaining/losing weight at that amount? Are you working out?

I haven't seen my new OB yet and I haven't found much information online about vsg and pregnancy. Just want to make sure I'm getting enough in and still have a healthy pregnancy.

I'm one year post op and still not to goal...maybe about 30lbs to go, so I have room to lose. The past few months I've been maintaining my weight, but now that I'm pregnant I've lost a few pounds. Just worried about eating enough, but not gaining a ton of weight either.

TIA!

I was an odd duck- I had hyperemesis throughout my pregnancy and my surgeon/OB both said eat whatever in the heck you want. I lost 15lbs between finding out I was pregnant and week 30ish? I gained 16lbs back. (So up 1lb from pre pregnancy). I'm now almost 25lbs less than pre-pregnancy. I tracked caloric intake for a bit and I was eating 1800ish in the middle (post puking 24/7, but before I felt like I was going to pop because baby was taking up too much space). I'm breastfeeding currently and maintaining at the 1800 calorie mark. (I'm happy where I am weight wise- and I don't want to lose anymore especially while breastfeeding).
