I'm 2 months out an consuming about 600-800 calories a day, and exercising. Roughly how many calories are people eating? Would love to hear from people who are at goal and maintaing weight as well.

I am 5 lbs. from goal at 9 months. I went to doctor today and NUT told me to stay between 800-1,000 til I lose the 5 lbs. and then increase to 1,200 to maintain. I have never been able to get in over 900 per day and usually average around 800. I am actually more concerned with carbs, which she said to increase from 60g per day while still losing and increasing to 150g per day to maintain. I can't even get in over 30g for sure. I need to start eating more to maintain and not keep losing! Luv my sleeve at 9 months.

I am three years out and was nearly at goal when I encountered major medical issue which resulted in my gaining back thirty pounds. I didn't change my eating habits, it was just a combination of the medical problems, inability to exercise, meds and hormones. I am now back fairly regulated, eating about 1350 calories a day and losing an average of 1.5 pounds per week.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
