Wanted to get some input on how many calories ,carbs, sugar, and protein are you guys consuming and are loosing at a good rate. I was told to eat 50g of protein but i was not adviced on the rest.

i was told that I need to eat 60-70g of protein

and I am not always good at that. my usual intake 45-55 g

Oops forget to write about others

I was told that my calories intake should be under 700-800 for now.

watch carbs ( don't have a number but on myfitnesspall I put 55)

I was also told 60 - 80 grams of protien, No refined sugars or carbs for the first year or until I make goal, Complex Carbs under 50 and calories I am so confused on. I think you will have to experiment and find what works with your body and it will range from 400 to 1,000 calories from the feed back I have recieved regarding calories from others on this site I just got off a stall so Im not sure what I am doing is working. I was doing best with weightloss on clear liquids. Once I started real food it slowed down so much. I havent found the magic number of calories I personally need yet. Best of luck to you

We will all tend to see the most rapid weight loss at the beginning, no matter what our diet may be (assuming that it does have the requisite caloric deficit to trigger weight loss!) When we first go into a caloric deficit, as when we start a weight loss program, or get into a famine, that deficit is made up with our quick energy reserves of glycogen (basically carbs) which burn fairly rapidly at a rate of about 2000 calories per pound. When our body gets the idea that you are into something serious and the caloric deficit is not going away anytime soon, then it starts tapping into its long term energy stores of fat, which burns more slowly at about 3500 calories per pound. It typically takes 2-3 weeks to get to this point, which often coincides with a change in diet phase in post op WLS programs. This is also when many people experience their first stall - the dreaded third week stall - when the body has to take a rest and rebuild its glycogen reserves to more normal levels, which involves some hoarding of Water to keep it in solution.

I was on mushies and soft Proteins from the outset, and also experienced my most rapid loss those first three weeks after which is slowed down as my body moved into fat burning mode. So, it really doesn't matter if one is on clear liquids, thick liquids, mushes or steak and potatoes those first couple of weeks, you will lose quickly assuming that the caloric deficit is there.

On the original question, I typically ran in the 90-110 g Protein range (appropriate for the metabolism of a guy with relatively high lean body mass,) carbs were in the 80-120g range (workable and at times essential for a relatively high activity level,) simple carbs & sugars were minimized, though some fruits, berries mostly, worked their way in over time, and calories averaged around 1100 during my loss phase. The 50g protein level quoted by the OP is on the low side of typical recommendations (normally in the 60-80g range) but is in the ballpark if the OP is a relatively short and small framed woman (say, 120lb or less of "should be" or ideal weight.) Many find that 600-800 calories to be something of a sweetspot for weightloss with the sleeve, and at that level, if one is meeting the protein goals, there isn't a lot of room to go wrong on fat and carbs with the remaining calories.

I'm on 10-20 carbs, 40-60 Protein. Unlimited fats & calories. But w limited carbs its hard to get above 1000 calories. This is the ONLY way I can lose weight. I've been doing this for 6 months and whenever my carbs go up I stop losing weight. No matter what do. I am just extremely sensitive to carbs. So the 'calorie deficit' doesn't work for me. .

I'm hoping once I lose the rest of my weight (about 50 pounds) and I go into maintaince I can relax on the carbs.
