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.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
