Search Ketosis. That is what you are aiming for.
That's good you are making a list of questions. Let us know what she says.

My NUT said that I was losing fine. I have lost since surgery a total of 25lbs. She said that I should be losing 3 to 5 lbs/wk which it looks like I'm at the high end of that spectrum. My protein total at this point is only 25-35 grams which is right what is expected of me. My fluids are now being upped to 64 oz depending on how well I can tolerate that amount. She also said that I should only have 1 veg and 1 fruit with my meals at this point and that I don't have to worry about carbs right now just don't only eat them. (after eating my proteins I have little room for anything else anyway). Next week she says that I should start my regular diet and of course eat what I can tolerate and introduce foods slowly. Obviously every center is different and everyone's needs are different. But I do appreciate you all taking the time to help with this situation. Thanks so much!!
