Askmehow, I get about 800 to 1000 a day if I'm lucky. But I do make sure I get my protein in, sometimes it's food sometimes it shakes. It has been a conscious decision every day. Some days I feel like eating like a hog and some days I don't like eating at all. I kind of thought my nutritionist would have addressed this issue but she has not. All they care is that I lost the weight and that I keep it off. sigh.

I am three months postop and I will tell you that it is hard to get all your protein in. Because of what your nutritionist says, if you can't get your protein in then drink your two shakes it's better than not getting your protein at all. They want me to take 1000 cal to 1300 cal and I can't even get that daily but all we can do is just the best we can. Just try to stay low carb, high protein and drink lots of water. You are doing just fine. I hope this helps
