How many calories on average should we be eating? I have been getting between 450 and 500 calories  and have stayed the same weight all of my 2nd week. Any hints or ideas?

You are doing just fine.  Remember, a stall or multiple stalls between weeks 2-8 is normal.  Keep working on your protein, water and walking. It's about the healing and not about the scale quite yet.  Trust me :)

Swampy1976,

Not bad, feel good! But it is strange to never feel hungry.  Thanks

I'm greeting in more calories but in exactly the same boat and also just over two weeks out.  I am getting in 900-1000 calories, lost 21 pounds on the three weeks of Opti and lost 5 lbs my first week home but nothing since. It's a bit frustrating and weird given I know I'm burning 3000 calories a day and walking my 10000 steps so I should be losing a pound very few days.  I too could only conclude it's one of the infamous stalls.
