I had my surgery on 9/17/07. I am eating just about what you are. My caloric intake ranges from 800 to 1100/day with 60 to 90 g. of protein. I try to keep the protein closer to the 90 g/day range. I just met with my nutritionist last week. She said that as long as I continue to exercise AND include weight training, I can go as high as 1400 calories/day. Generally, she wants me to be closer to the 1000+ calories/day as opposed to 800, so it sounds like what you are doing is right on track.

Now I'm wondering if I'm eating to few calories! I only take in between 600-800 calories a day, with 70-90g of protein (I eat around 2-3oz a day... closer to 2oz than 3). I had lap RNY on 9/24/07. I did go into my surgeons office and talk to his PA, although it was a rather quick visit and we didn't go into to manty details about food, he said it seems I'm doing fine with what I am eating.
