My doctor told me my body is holding on to the fat because I'm not getting enough calories and my body thinks I'm starving. So I'm going up from 300 to 700 calories a day. But I'm finding it difficult. I don't know what I should eat. I've increased my calories but the weight is not coming off. I need to be sure everything I eat is healthy. I drink 2 premeir protein shakes a day. Then maybe a slice raisin bread in the morning. And at night to meet my calorie requirement I've been eating cup I noodles, tacos, and chimmicungas. I know they arnt good foods but I meet my protein and calorie requirements. So I'm thinking I need to measure the fat calories in foods. How many fat calories are healthy?

Stay away from the carbs girl!!! Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, almonds, laughing cow cheese, quest bar, baby bel lights... Better options to name a few!

Protein protein protein. I used to fluff this off but there is a big difference. Over the past two years I have realized carbs slow my weight lost down. I mean the "bad" carbs. Rice, pasta, potatoes, bread, etc. I lose when I'm over 70 grams per day. Good luck.

So the more protein, more weight comes off? I had my RNY 15 nov 2012. My wife had the sleeve 15 March 2012, and she pretty much told me I am on mine own.

emt... my doc suggest 70-90 g protein a day. I do not count calories or fat just protein. Think atkins diet. DL Coggin has a list of high protein foods.. If you message him he will email it to you. Good luck bud!!

I love eating meat so this will not be a problem. Unless I overeat. I hate pucking. Thank you kristy
