Maintenance calories/ounces/x daily/ Food

[Texasmanjohn11 0]

How much food does everyone eat while on maintenance? Ounces/calories and times a day. What did you eat while losing the weight?

I've been wondering the same question. I'm two months out and have no idea how much I SHOULD be eating. I eat 500-600 calories a day, maybe 3-4 oz at a time.

I’ve been staying under 800 calories a day and am averaging 5.5 pounds lost per week

You’re asking about maintenance, right? Confused bc everyone is answering about while they are losing.

I am four and a half years post op. Been at goal since a year out.

I have to eat about 5 smaller meals a day to get all my food in because my capacity is limited. Like a meal might be half a sirloin patty and a cup of salad.

Anyhow I eat anywhere from 1800-2800 calories a day as a 5’6” 140-ish pound woman. I run about 20 miles a week and do 4-5 hours of heavy yoga.
