Worried I am having to many calories

I am ten days out from RNY and have three Protein shakes a day which comes to 600 carlories and 70 grams of protein My doctor wants another 5 grams of protein at least. I have been eating cottage cheese or yogurt about half a cup a day. It is another 50 calories. I also drink 48 oz. of Water a day and have a cup of broth as well. Am I eating to much? I will say my blood sugars have been really good with a fifth of the medicine I used to take, I have morning sugars of 100-120 since I have gotten home from the surgery.

Sorry to babble, just want to do well and not fail once again.

You may want to ask your doctor. Everyone's different but for me that a lot. You may want to cut down on cottage cheese and yogurts. Three Proteins and 48 water is a lot for one day. My doctor told me not to go over 700 to 800 calories.
