300 calories a day?!

I just realized that's all I'm taking in a day. In between Protein drinks and Water, I rarely eat any "real" food. Still on full liquids (and hating it).

Just making sure this is normal for someone 12 days post-op.

    I was right about 300-350 12 days post op too. I remember because I had the same wtf moment. Lol

  • I didn't start soft food for two weeks post op. Get your allotted protein in and drink your water and you should be fine

Hi I agree with the above statements as long as you are following your doctors orders and drinking you will be fine, I am 15 days post opt and I was taking in between 300 -400 calories per day, I have not been tired and besides a little back pain I feel great. Good luck and as always if you still are concern contact your doctor.

This was my normal for the first three months.

That was normal for me, but I focused on protein and was getting at least 60 gm per day.
