Worried I am having to many calories



Recommended Posts

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.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
