_Mini_Me_ 133 Posted March 23, 2017 Im just about 3 months post-op, and I want to get in the habbit of tracking all the food I eat. What is a realistic calorie goal for 3 months? Myfitness pal keeps suggesting 1200, but there is no way. Also add me if you use it, greenem5 I found suggested Macros on a website that says 50%protein, 30%fat, and 20% carbs will promote weightloss. Does anyone else have a macro and calorie goal set?

And these weight loss apps can't understand our low calorie intake so I just log my few calories in it anyway lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blizair09 3,250 Posted March 24, 2017 At 3 months post-op, I was taking in about 1000 calories per day. (For reference, though, I am a 41 year old man, 6"0" and around 250 at that time). I have followed a low carb/highish protein/high healthy fat way of eating all along (pre-op diet program, through the food stages, and now). So, I eat around 100-120 grams of Protein per day, less than 20 carbs per day, and probably around 100 grams of fat per day. At nearly 6 months post-op, I eat between 1100-1200 calories per day. I weigh 215 now, so that number is still working for me. I don't imagine it will get much higher during my weight loss phase. I have about 35 pounds until goal. 1 _Mini_Me_ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
