  • take the total fat g and multiply it by 9 and that number should = the calories if it's higher than the actual calories that the fat content is way to high and should be avoided.

I am not sure about fat but you should be taking in about 1000-1200 calories per day and 50-60 grams of protein.

Really I'm in the liquid stage I'm only getting in like 630 calories and about 50gm of protein

take the total fat g and multiply it by 9 and that number should = the calories if it's higher than the actual calories that the fat content is way to high and should be avoided.

when I was in the liquid stage I had trouble getting calories in as well. I was worried, but my nutritionist said that was normal. Make sure you get your protein in though. I was told atleast 75 gm of protein. I used the Premier Protein Shakes, they're 30gm each. Good luck, it does get easier.
