Diet during supervised weight loss period?

[Mel24 51]

What did the dr/NUT put you on for your supervised WL period? I am currently taking Contrave, attending WW, but don't count points. I have been battling the same 5-8 lb for a couple months. When I did my pre op visit, they did the Resting Energy Expenditure test and mine was 85% of average. So since I am only burning 1780 cal at rest, they (NUT) said I should eat 1500 cal to 1800 cal on heavy workout days.

Any tips? I only have to do this for 3 months, but I am still hoping the insurance sees 4 years if WW records, and they will grant the approval. I meet with the dr on 3/12. TIA!
