How many CALORIES NOW???

Hi All, Just checking to see how many calories u are all eating now at about 4 months out??? Anybody get the night munchies again??? Thanx Sharon

I can barely get in 800 calories a day and struggling with the water. I am curious as to how many calories we should be getting in. And no night munchies ... but then I never had them. Lida

I get hungry when I get tired so I just go to bed and the problem is solved.......... But if I feel like munching I eat sunflower seeds............ they are good in protein.............I just try and get my protein in and my water in along with some fiber............Not for sure on the cal intake!

I'm not sure of my calorie intake either. My surgeon tells us not to stress over it, but to make sure we eat no more than 4 oz per meal and get in as much protein as possible. I am curious, though, so I think I'll go plug it into Fitday for a few days.

I don't have the night munchies yet but sometimes my last meal is past 7 which I don't like to do. The times I have put mine in on fitday it has come up to 700-1000 calories. The days I eat more....I don't get my water in.

Twinster... Per the Bariatric Dietician last night.. "Are you getting in your protein?"....me..."yes" then....Don't count your calories or carbs...you didn't have this surgery to be on a diet.... My new mantra.... love ya chickadee!! Lori 222/172/1?? laprny 1-6-04

That's my Twin always making me feel BETTER!!!!!!!!!! I have been saying "How did I have surgery & I am on a diet" I say that EVERY DAY!!! I'm happy one of us is seeing the Dietician LOL. What else did she say??? Anything I should know LMAO.. Love ya Back & Thank you Sharon

Sharon, I'm so glad you mentioned the night munchies. I have been battling them for the past two weeks. BAD!! I have no problem any other time of the day. How are you handling it? I was worried that I was doing something wrong because I thought I shouldn't be having these urges to munch yet! Susan

Handling it??? I eat LOL... Just a tad but I either have sf ff pudding w/cool whip lite, No sugar added ice cream or light popcorn (& my microwave broke 2 days ago & I am not happy) But who would of thought we could have night munchies??? Not me!!! People ask me how good is it that I am not hungry!!! well, I do get hungry just different hungry I guess. It's 10:00 pm & I want a snack. Had a few peanuts, holding back!!!!!!!!! Sharon

I'm munching on the same kind of things, but I keep hearing the "NO SNACKS" screaming in my head. I feel like I'm doing something wrong. It is reassuring to hear someone else talk about it. Susan
