Question On Calories...

[kspye 5]

about how many daily calories are you getting now that you're sleeved? Or do you count them at all?

600-800. I don't mean to count, but I use sparkpeople.com to track my Protein and it goes with the territory. Also, it is good to know so that if you stall you can figure out what adjustments need to be made.

~450 the first week, ~550 the second week...and then aiming for 600-800 going forward. Per my surgeon and nutritionist.

I get usually about 400, but always less than 600. I keep a track to get into the habit or if I have a problem. I use fitnesspal on my phone... Very convenient

I too, use myfitnesspal on my phone although I've been slacking off that and I need to get back on track because it keeps me honest! I'm five months out and I can easily get up to 1200 if I'm not paying attention and letting myself snack on carb-o-licious things like cheez-its.

Ideally, I like to be 800-1000 calories a day.
