Didn't your surgeon and/or NUT give you guidelines?

Are you tracking your intake? If you aren't, either go back to it or start. Really. That's the only way to know.

I weigh my food and track it with an app. If you weigh and track your food you know exactly where you went wrong.

I am 8 months out. What I eat varies by my mood. I have one Protein shake a day. A steak or 2, 4 to 5 ounces. 6 ounces of fish. I eat 4 times a day and try to have 100 to 120 grams of Protein a day. I try to keep my calories above 700 and below 1100. I still have some high and low days, it just depends on my mood. I keep my net carbs below 50, my goal is below 30 but that can be hard some days.

I need to stop eating carbs some days i do good and others its so hard not to eat them.

My surgeon says 900-1100 calories from 3 months post op until forever. Every surgeon has different guidelines I suppose. Somedays I manage to eat a little more than that, but it is with purpose as I am very active. I log everything.

I am 5 months post-op and this is my abbreviated meal plan:

Log my food & any exercise daily

900-1,100 calories per day

60-80g of Protein

At least 64 oz. of Water

No bread, rice or Pasta

No dried fruit or hard, raw veggies

Eat Protein first and have protein at every meal/snack

Avoid high fat foods (5g or less per serving)

Avoid high sugar foods (14g or less per serving/25g or less per day)

Avoid high sodium foods

Take my Multivitamins

Exercise 5 hours per week

Typical Breakfast is a smoothie (Protein shake, 1/2 banana, PB fit) or Fiber Cereal w/milk, lunch is 1/2 c. refried Beans with cheese & ff sour cream or a salad with grilled chicken and low-fat dressing, dinner is chicken breast or shrimp or lean beef with steamed veggies or a baked sweet potato. Snacks are string cheese or triple zero yogurt or cottage cheese or almonds. Sometimes I will make chicken salad out of canned chicken and snack on that over a few days with a couple wheat thins crackers. I've been craving cuties lately, so I've incorporated one a day this week.

I usually log my food and try to drink more Water. I was going threw my food log in my fitness pal and I usually stay under 1100 calories but they are some days I go over and hit 1500 calories and I also notice is around the time I have will get my period or have it. I tend to crave sweets like Cookies and stuff i should not have.

I had one egg ( over easy) two pieces of bacon and a mini tortilla for break fast.

snack I had a Believe Mocha Latte

lunch I will have chicken breast 4oz, 1/4 of a cucumber, one boiled egg and a table spoon of dressing so far this is 551 calories. I should stop eating mini tortilla for Breakfast . I still don't know what i will be having for dinner.
