Had surgery on the 3rd and I'm just wondering how many calories other are getting sometime I feel like I'm not getting enough fluids in a day ?

I'm getting in about 500-600 calories a day and about 5 glasses of water.

What did your Dr say? I'm sure you received a brochure or nutrition/diet guidance before you had surgery?

I probably ate about 1400 calories a day. Water was not an issue as I could drink whatever amount I wanted. If you don't have a manual take a look at this manual but you need to be aware that some doctors or nutritionists will design a nutrition plan specifically for each patient and their individual needs.

OR, check out this video. Watch all 4 if you have time.

I'm almost 4 weeks post op and having about 700 calories a day I have a hard time getting more then that in...I'm also drinking about 5-6 cups of Water a day I try to drink more I never had a problem getting water in before surgery but find it harder now. I don't know how many calories are recommended but would like to get more in as well to speed up the weight loss and get out of this "starvation mode"
