How many calories were you/are you consuming at 5 weeks post op?

I averaged around 500 for week 5.

I am not sure if that is low or high I'm pretty new at this...

I get between 600-800 per day, but I am still reliant on shakes for my Protein because I cant eat that much.

My program said I should be getting 500-800 calories on phase III which was week 3. That's the only time I have heard or read anything about calorie intake from my program. I just focus on Water and Protein like they keep stressing and I eat what I can comfortably. There was one day in week 5 where I hit 745 calories but there was also one day I only hit 317 calories. I track my calories but don't worry about them that much.

I average about 500 calories as well but I wanted to see where that was compared to others. I was never given anything about this either from the surgeon

About 600 cams and we between 600-800 until end of month 5 when I started some serious gym work, and upped to 1200....been there ever since, but follow your own NUT guidelines, as every single surgeon/ clinic has differing recommendations!
