I am getting in about 1000 calories. They wanted me at 800-850 but I couldn't lose any weight on that. 65-80g protein daily minimum. I try to stay at 100 net carbs or less. I'm 6 months out tomorrow.
That's about average depending on how much you have to lose. I had lost about 45 in 3 months. I'm almost 6 months out now and have lost 65. Only about 20-25 more to go. Hang in there and log everything you eat.
My date is July 8th. I'm having my surgery in Michigan. I too would love to join the FB page once it's secret. I joined a private FB page and had a friend called me up and said it showed up in her feed soooooo only secret pages for me now. I don't care who knows but my support is my business.
