calories

Hi Have an appt coming up in a few weeks with my nutritionist but I wondering how many calories are people eating I was down 100 lbs and have regained 30, been back on track for few weeks but the scale is moving up and down, I am eating between 900-1000 calories,someone suggested this is too little. I am thinking maybe I need to get down to 800.I am doing about 70grams of protein a day. Experiencing extreme knee pain so my exercise is very limited, probably averaging 1 mile per day. Thoughts?

Not sure about calorie intake but that's the range that works for me under 1000. I'm 4 years post op vsg, trying to lose pregnancy weight. I keep my cardio calories low also since I'm not consuming alot of calories.  Don't burn more than you consume is my #1 rule. I need to lose around 50 pounds and keeping my calories below 1000 a day puts me in fat burning stage. 

Hope this helps and good luck!

I eat 1,000 to maintain.  I have to go below to start losing which is what I am doing now.  Not successfully ever day so the weight loss regain has been slow.  Also am not as active in the winter months.
