How do i get my calories?



Recommended Posts

Breakfast: 1 egg and 8oz of juice 130 cals

Snack: Protein shake 120cals

Lunch: Greek yogurt 65 cals

Snack: cheese stick 50cals

Dinner: Ricotta bake 130cals

Total: 500cals and 46G of Protein

My NUT wants me at 800cals and 60-80 grams of protein. How in the world do I do this? I can add another Protein Shake and that will get my protein up but she doesn't really want me to drink. She wants it to come from food. Any ideas/suggestions? What do you all eat in a day to get your numbers up?

Take skimmed milk and add two dates in it and a little Caedmon power! Tastes really good! Dates are good for heart and hav loads of calories!

Cottage cheese is a really good source of Protein. It's also very tasty if you scramble 1/4 c of it with an egg. You could also try mixing flavored or unflavored Protein Powder with your greek yogurt to boost protein and calories.

it "looks" like from the food you are eating/drinking you are on the soft stage???? maybe 6-7 weeks PO???

i am surprised at this early point saying you should 800 calories???, but all NUTS are different

Add cottage cheese, another yogurt , cheese (babi bell is delicious)

i'm sure you'll get other suggestions

good luck :)

btw - i guess thats why tickers are helpful, so ppl can see DOS, weight et al - just a comment/suggestion to all - (you know who you are :lol: :lol:)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
