  11. Talk to my nut in the cafe today. We work in the same hospital. She said to keep calories under 800. Which at this point I can't even eat that much. Im glad i seen her...it made me feel much better. And the best part is...I didn't have to pay a copay.

  15. 4 1/2 wks post-op 21 pounds down. Now I'm at a stand still. I know I should not get on the scale everyday. But it's hard not to. Question...how many calories are people eating? I was never told how many to have at this point. By the way im on soft foods now. Thanks in advance for the help.
