For full liquids, I was about 450-500 a day. I am on regular food now (7 weeks out) I track everything and I'm usually between 650-800 a day. I worry most about Protein. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

You are only three weeks out. It does get better, it's practically a full time job getting in your Protein and Water in the beginning. I'd call your nutritionist, it's always a good idea if you are struggling. I am now 7 weeks out and it has improved a lot for me. Can you tolerate broth?

Great job! The time will pass and you'll be able to have real food, just stick to your plan and the numbers will keep dropping. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

Orange juice is on my plan but after 12 weeks. I'm trying not to drink any of my calories unless the Protein is worth it. Soda was my vice (slippery slope) so I stick to Water, decaf iced tea, and crystal light. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

Day 5 I started to feel better and one month out all my regrets went away. Hang in there! Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

No, I didn't cheat. The reason I didn't is because I'm a nurse and I've seen a lot of patients who had surgery and then later regained because they never worked on fixing their brain when their surgery happened. I'm six weeks post Monday and I still haven't cheated and now that it has been 2 months, I feel like I've got a decent handle on the beginning of changing my relationship with food. Mindful eating helped me a lot during my preop diet and dealing with head hunger. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

Congrats!!! Also, looking into getting a FitBit... but was undecided. Like the reviews on the Alta. Which fitbit do u have & how do you like it? I have the Flex 2 because I'm a swimmer and it's waterproof and it will log my laps. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

It'll come!! I promise!!! Dang decade dances I call them. Just tipped into the 170's. Next stop 160's!! (Btw- I don't pay attention to the numbers In between 9-0!!! They go up and down day to day until they don't! Lol) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I like that philosophy! I'm going to adopt it. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

I love GENEPRO. I put it in my Greek yogurt, V8, Fairlife chocolate milk. You can't taste it at all. Vsg 9/26/16 HW 331 CW 288
