I am not there yet only 11 days post op. I was told at 7 months out I will be somewhere between 700-800 calories I dont think I go to 1000 calories until near goal. Around 90 grams of Protein and less then 40 grams of carbs. Each doctor is diffrent though. Good luck

1000-1200 is a healthy goal.

This is something that you will probably have to figure out on your own. Everyones needs are different. Dependng on your height and physical activity your calorie demands can be way different that someone who is more or less active. There are a lot of factors involved in what your body needs to either continue losing weight or maintain. Good Luck

Yes,everyone is different this far out and it depends on how much you still have to lose.

Mine is all over the show.From 600 some days to 1300 other days.However,it seems to balance out nicely as I still drop my 7-10 pounds once a month. (Ok,I figured why startve myself if this is the way it will be anyway so when I have hungry days I do eat a little more calories.After a few fo these my appetite disappears and I drop down very low,just to make Protein every day)

Average though is 850 per day.Carbs under 50 (mostly under 40) and Protein anything from 60 to 90g.

Ok,Im not helping am I?lol.Sorry..!

I'm right at 7 months out. I saw my NUT last week and we looked at my food diary. I'm getting between 800 and 900 calories a day and she thought it was perfect. She did say as time went on, I'd be able to consume more calories, and that as long as they are good calories (not sugar, etc) I should be fine.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
