taylormomto6 74 Posted March 28, 2019 Question for vets...I’m 6 weeks out, getting all my fluids, Protein in and carbs about 20g. I’m wanting to make sure I’m getting maximum weight loss in these first 6 months (I’m a revision and terrified of not being successful this time) but I see conflicting information about either keeping calories low (around the 600 mark) or eating more to get calories in the 800-1000 range because “your not eating enough”. What is your experience when in the losing phase? 1 GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreenTealael 25,430 Posted March 28, 2019 (edited) Not a VET but perhaps... TRIAL AND ERROR Go with the plan laid out for you by your Team and revise it if needed. Usually low cal will do it but also switching things up when you think you need to. Revision results are different from 1st time surgeries. Some say slower. But you can still achieve great results in the long run.

My team guidelines say under 1000 calories and under 50 carbs, but honestly that just seems high to me and I’m hoping to no not waste time eating much to find out it doesn’t work for me. By the same logic I don’t want to eat too little either, lol. 2 ProudGrammy and Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
