OK, just want to know more about what you guys are doing and your success with your eating habits.

I voted none at all, just eat till I'm full. But I'm choosing wisely, lots of fruit and vegetables, pretty low fat (but I do eat the good fats), trying to get in lots of fibre and still enough protein, etc etc. So I'm not eating any rubbish which means it's pretty low cal. I've done the calorie counting thing so many times in my life I can keep a pretty accurate mental scorecard and it's came in around 1000-1200 for the first couple of weeks, is edging up to 1500ish now, I think I will be having a fill next week.

Hi, I eat fruit in the morning and fish or chicken in luch and dinner. No veggies because i dont like them.

I've been sticking to protein first then veggies. I haven't missed carbs so much but I am afraid to eat them.

I follow the bandster recommendations of Protein first, then veggies, then ice cream. :rofl:

Really, I just eat the protein first and everything else falls into place.

I follow the banster rules of protein first, then veggies at least most of the time.

i try to eat healthy no sweets, no soda, protein shakes, water, chicken, tuna, eggs, lean cuisine and soups and veggies.

:eek: This is my first week on regular food and I am trying to eat low fat and low sugar. I am eating my protein first followed by my vegetables and carbs. It is so nice to be back on regular food.

I've found, post-op, that I can eat just about anything in moderation. The simple act of eating about 1/3 of my pre-op intake is enough to have me losing an average of 1.5 lbs per week. Today I officially hit the 20lbs loss mark! - I guess I should update my ticker....

Low-cal for me. I average anywhere between 800 and 900 calories per day.

Help me figure out an easy way to count calories........:help:
