Question:
How many calories should I be getting at 6 months post op?

I am 6 months post op and have lost 93 pounds. I am 19 pounds from goal, and am wondering what others are/were getting at this stage? I am eating very healthy, 3 meals plus 3 snacks per day, mostly protein, veggies, fruits, etc.Drinking all my water. I seem to be eating between 1100-1300 calories per day. I exercise just about every day.Is this too much? Any input would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance.    — Vicki K. (posted on December 8, 2001)

I just came from a support meeting this week, and to answer your question, it sounds like you are eating a healthy amount. COngrats on your good work!

I am 7 months post op and eat about the same calories you do. I am at goal but, as I "re-upped" my protein I am starting to lose a little more--slowly. It sounds to me like you are doing great!
