Question:
Any idea how many calories we should eat 8 mos post op?

Hello everyone-I have noticed that I am eating about 1000 calories a day and I was wondering if this was normal for being 8 months post op. I get in all my protein and water and exercise without issues, but my losing has slowed down a bit now (lost 137lbs still have about 50 to go) and I was wondering if it was because I am eating too many calories. When I was eating less I lost 2-3 lbs a week and now I am losing about 1-2 lbs a week. Since I started incorporating fruits and veggies in my diet, my caloric intake has increased. I know we shouldn't count calories but that is a way I track my intake. And advice is appreciated.    — Alli B. (posted on June 3, 2002)
