How Many Calories Pre / Post Lap Band Surgery

Hey guys. I'm hopefully a Jan bandster and have started a pre op food reduction (not dr ordered, but mainly as practice with guidance of nutritionist). I'm wondering how many calories you shoot for in a day? I've been trying to keep it under 1200 and have lost a lot quick (13 lbs in about 2 week with some off days). What are your daily goals banded or pre op?
