Every single day this is on My Fitness Pal when I log in to post. Our NUT said no particular food plan after 2 months, no guidance, just eat healthy. Our surgeon said Do Not eat 3 meals a day, eat only when you are hungry. Being 66 and 65, we are not very active, husband can hardly walk. He will be able to swim before long with the weather change. I do not know if we just need to up the calories, or what. Any suggestions will be appreciated. BTW, we pretty much have lived this way for a long time, not eating regular meals, then we would be starving and overeating and gaining weight. Just that now we are not overdoing it. My husband will drink 1/2 protein shake for a meal because he has "diet" in his brain, still.

My program is very similar too Madam Reverie's except for my Protein requirement at 70 grams. It is nearly Paleo. If I can catch it or pick it, I can eat it - protein first. Nothing made in a factory except I can have one Protein shake a day.

I have been getting that same message from myfitnesspal every day since I started my pre-op last September. Oh well.

LOL thank you all. The responses here are over my head but you are all phenominal with your knowledge!!! But I am going to work harder on a plan, and made an appointment to see the NUT next week. She works for the surgeon so I think they should lead us a little better than say "eat healthy" at 2 months. God Bless!
