My NUT doesn’t give me calorie restrictions. I have a Protein goal, Water goal, and carb/fat restrictions. With that I’m given a list of foods not to eat. My center try’s to focus on healthy, balanced, sustainable eating instead of calorie counting. I do know that others have been advised differently from their medical teams. 1 aussiemomdinoaunt reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lol 😂 hahahaha...my doctor didn't clear or anything because I developed asthmatic bronchitis, then acute bronchitis and pleuritic inflammation on right lung right after the surgery, I was pretty much in and out of ER until last week, the worst pain ever on my lungs and still feel a lot of pain even though the bronchitis went away I am still dealing with little inflammation on that right side. I'll call my doctor just to double check but I think I should be ok lol. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
