My nut says 1,000 calories a day but that just doesn't sound right. My natural tendency is 650-850/day. My nut says if I do that, when I stall I'll have nothing to cut back on because my body will already be adjusted to low calories. ??? Does anyone have info on optimum calories?

This is a great question! I'd like to find out as well. I've got my 5wk follow-up with my dr later this week and I'll have to put that on the list of questions to ask. I'm with you... I want to say my natural tendency is to have about 700-800cal/day and don't know what I should be "shooting" for.
