I'm about four days out and on liquids this week. I can have protein shakes, broth, water, etc. I'm only getting in about 200 calories a day and not sure that's enough. Anyone else on liquids? How many calories are you getting in?
Also, a 'delicate' subject - bowel movements. Any little bit I've had has been pretty loose. Anyone else?

As far as BMs I am almost 1m out and mine are still VERY loose! I am assured that it is not very uncommon.
Calorie wise, I really should start counting. I have the misfortune of not feeling full, so I have to watch how much I eat VERY carefully!! I really have to talk to my nutritionist. I am calling her tomorrow to see what is up. I have been trying to limit what I eat to 1/4c, but I can eat a whole 6oz cup of yogurt and still feel not full. SO there has to be a problem. Oh, I am about 3 1/2 wks out. and at the end of the pureed phase.

Katy - I journal everything that goes in my mouth on fitday.com. It's free and you can also track your weight and exercise. There's also a place to journal and write down how you are feeling, etc. I find it invaluable. When you put what you eat in, it breaks down fat, carbs and protein. I don't know where I'd be without it! Give it a try.
