  1. I had my surgery July 16, lost 38 lbs so far. Will have my first till Sept 4th, this Friday. I have read a variety of calories people should be having but they are all different.
     

    How do you figure out how many calories? I have a 54 BMI
    I know we need 60 proteins daily but can you get too much?

    I found this great software program to add to my palm pilot to help me track everything.
    http://www.calorieking.com/software/ckmobplus.php
    It tracks calories, proteins, carbs, fats and exercising and has over 10,000 listing of foods on it. It has come in very helpful. But it says I should be getting 2400 calories, that sounds insanely too high but again I am HUGE right now.
     
    Can anyone give me advice on how many calories and what is the max on protein?
     
    I'm also nervous about my first fill. Any advice on what I should eat/drink afterwards and how long this first fill will keep me restricted?
     
    Nervous, I'm just plain nervous!!
     
    Help, anyone.
