Yaya B 49 Posted October 11, 2016 How many calories am I supposed to be eating each day? I can't get a hold of my NUT and I realized we never went over this. Please help! Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
higher 966 Posted October 11, 2016 My plan says to stay between 8-1200 calories past week 4 post-op, but keep trying your NUT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kayse 25 Posted October 11, 2016 I eat an average of 800 /day Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sai 785 Posted October 11, 2016 I average 850 cal/day. I try to hit above 800 because I'm trying to avoid gallstones (~23% are at risk of gallstones after WLS surgery). I hope you can get a hold of your NUT since we all have different programs. One thing that is across the board is our main focus is on Protein & Water intake especially in the earlier weeks.
