I am usually taking in about 300 to 400 calories a day but today I took in 600. What is everybody taking in? Ive done real good, have lost 15.5 lbs in 2 weeks and 30 in 4 weeks.

    I was also sleeved on 12/26. I manage to get in around 350 - 400 calories day. I also hit a stall at 3 weeks but since then I'm losing at a slow but steady pace. I'm down 31 pounds since surg

  • I had surgery on the 31st too. I average 4 to 500 calories a day.

  • Hi sleeve sister! Same boat as you, about 600 calories. Nice to see you posting & hope you are feeling better everyday

We had surgery the same day! On average I take in the same amount between 300 and 400 and that is if I try really hard. I've lost 14lbs since surgery...so we are pretty close in stats. I would also like to know what everyone's average is because I have a real difficult time getting in over 400...especially since everything is low fat etc.

Surgery 1-16

500-600 daily

264 day of surgery

239 today

I was averaging about 400-500 calories at 16 days. Sounds like you're right on track! Keep it going!

Hello I had surgery on December 26, 2012 About seven weeks now.... On week number 3 ,I plateaued didn't lose anything for a week And also on week six..... It is a scary feeling.... I have lost 35 pounds but feel like I should've lost about 40-45 If I had not plateaued out...... I do know I've lost a lot of inches I went from a size 24 to pick extra-large in a skirt....

My doctor said I was not taking in enough calories (I was currently taking in 300 to 350 in )..... Wants me to get it up to 700 cal.... This was two weeks ago.... And still not at 700 cal but I am now at least a 550-600 Day.... This week I lost 3 1/2 pounds pounds.... So maybe he knows what he's talking about LOL

Yes I would like that too.... It would be great to keep it was someone's progress that had on the same day
