I need this answered(Help)

How many calories are we to comsumed at 1 year after the surgery. and water intake. Thanks

I was never told by my surgeon or nutritionist to count calories. Sorry I don't have an answer. I'm 11 months postop and drink 100+ oz of fluids daily and consume between 500 and 1200 calories a day depending on my mood and appetite. Some days I can eat more and some days I can't. Hugs

Thanks for your reply. The Dr'S office said the same thing..

from what i have been told you need 60 ounces + of fluids a day more when its hot and your body needs at least 800 calories a day to survive or it goes into starvation mode and it will keep everything you put into it and slow weight loss down or may even cause gain

My PCP told me if you are still trying to lose 1200-1800 calories per day. If you are done losing to be at 1500-2000 a day. Good luck, Tina

Great question...I'd never even thought to ask!
