duvie75 9 Posted December 29, 2016 I'm in my soft food phase how many calories am I suppose to consume? Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kmccusker127 11 Posted December 29, 2016 Hi. I don't think the calories matter as much as getting enough Protein and enough fluids. My doctor stated that he wanted to be on a 1000 cal per day diet for at least three weeks after surgery. Hope this helps !

duvie75 9 Posted December 29, 2016 Omg 1000 calories! I'm not even close! I do get all my Protein and liquids in, but I've only been consuming like 400 calories a day that's probably why I'm so exhausted.

Omieliz 213 Posted December 29, 2016 The first couple of months on soft food, I was between 450 calories to 600 calories - max. I'm now 4 months out and I'm between 650 calories to 800 calories a day. That's per my doctor and nutritionist guidelines.

Thank u for replying Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App I'm the weeks out and in only getting between 300-400 calories a day also. Getting all my Protein and liquid in. I lost 10 lbs the first week and unfortunately nothing since. Hopefully things well pick up again soon. Getting a little frustrated seeing people dropping weight like crazy and I'm stuck already.

Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App That was my fear going into this as for the last year and a half I was only eating one small meal a day. I'm so afraid this isn't going to work. I'm trying to stay positive and hoping the scale starts moving and I haven't done all of this for nothing.

megetslim 7 Posted December 29, 2016 I am the same. I get in about 350-420 calories per day and that is with sipping all day between Protein and liquids. I still am only hitting around 50 Fluid ounces and 45-50 grams of Protein. Trying to get more in every day. I have only lost 8 pounds since surgery almost 2 weeks ago.

Kestrael 42 Posted December 29, 2016 I'm on soft foods now, and yesterday I got something like 465 calories in, but today looks like it is going to be more like 600ish, as I'm at 419 after lunch.I am trying to focus more on my Protein and liquids, though.

81Kellogram 101 Posted December 29, 2016 When I told my NUT that I'm walking an hour a day he said I should try to get 800 calories per day and to never go below 500 calories. I'm four weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wonder WomanNJ 119 Posted December 29, 2016 I've stalled too at 1 week. I'm not concerned, just went on stage 2 today so I haven't been eating much and so it HAS to come off! LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank u for replying Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App I follow my plan and it's between 600 and 800 calories per day, depending on how much fat I consume. For the first few weeks it was much less. You are tried because you are recovering from major surgery. Try adding an extra shake to see if your energy level increases. And try to get rest between periods of activity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
