For those of you with mid-Jan surgery dates, what are your portion sizes like these days? My surgeon is telling me that I am not progressing the way I should be and thinks I am actually starving myself. I can't help but wonder what the rest of you are doing portion-wise!

I eat about 500 calories a day had surgery on January 22 SW 336 CW 266 Whent from a size 26 to an 18 loose so far xl shirt from a 3x I feel great but upset last week Iweighed 264 so I gained 2 lbs.

I had surg on Jan 29th. I find that I take in about 500 cals but I work out three times a week and burn more cals than I take in.

Also I have not really gone down sizes. I've lost almost 70 lbs and I have gone down only one size possibly two. Size 24 to 22 or 20. The 22 is a little loose.

I had surgery in December. I eat between 600-700 calories a day. I had to up my Protein to 80-90g a day. I started having hair loss when getting the set minimum of 60g. I went from a size 22-12 now. People make remarks that I'm wasting away, I'm so skinny. But I still have 20 lbs to go before I'm at the high range of my height/weight ratio.

I would like to be able to get to 130, I dropped my goal from 140.

Hey guys! Lost 50 lbs so far. I did have to up my calories because I'm pregnant but I'm still losing.
