Calorie intake?

[susan1349 1]

Does anyone count calories as well?? If so...what foods are you eating? Portions?

I do. 1000 calories, for Breakfast I eat 1 scrambled eggs and 2 oz sausage, for lunch the serving size of deli meat and cheese, for dinner, 3 Oz chicken or beef or pork and 2 Oz veggies.

When I'm eating properly, I range from 950-1150. My practice's RD told me not to under 800, which makes great, good sense in a few ways.

@@susan1349, how are you tracking your intake? It sounds as though you're not using one of the well-known trackers.

I am not yet a bander, but from the things I have taken on home the doctor. I would say try stay around 900-1100 calories... Keep your Protein high, and use a tracker app on your phone or tablet. Myfitnesspal is a great one, or if you want to track your calories out as well, a fitbit is amazing! You can track both at the same time!

Best of luck!

Cream of chicken Soup, skim milk, sugar free ice cream then later spread out....snacks. I ate every 3 hours I guess sugar free pudding cup. Instant mashed potatoes. D. Cream of pea Soup, skim milk. Protein shake with PB powder

I feel like I'm full of liquid. Drank sugar free ice tea
