What do you eat in a day 6 months post op?



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone! I am 6 months post op vsg and I definitely feel like I am able to eat anything much easier now. But because of this I'm at a really tough stall....and I know part of it is because I can get more calories in. So...what did/do you eat in a day 6 months post op?? And how many calories do you take in a day? Thanks!!

I also am curious what others are eating at the four month stage. My nutritionist wants me at 2 oz a meal 3 times a day plus a snack and no more than 600 cals. I am finding it near impossible to meet those limitations and hit the Protein requirements. I find myself getting hungry often. Curious to hear other experiences.

I was getting around 800 calories a day but had stalled, so I upped it to 1000 and started losing weight again. I focus on high Protein, little to no carbs.

I'm right at 6 months. I was for the past few months right at 60-65 g of Protein and getting about 650-700 calories. I am below weight goal so I'm trying to maintain and not lose so I just increased calories to 1000 the past 2 weeks but I'm still losing 2#/week.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
