I try to hit 700 but rarely make it.

For the first month, I was 400-500 average per day. Now, at 7 weeks, I yo-yo between 575-700 per day, and on the higher days I feel like I stuffed myself! I also use MFP on my phone, but be picky about the information and make sure it matches. There are a lot of false or conflicting entries in there. I also have a nutrition facts book that I *try* to use as a guide to see what the most consistent answer comes to. I say *try* because lugging a book around all day is a bit of a PIA.

Ditto!! (Except the book :))

For the first couple months I rarely got above 600 cals. At 7 months out, I now get between 800-1000 cals/day.
