Post Op Calorie Count

I'm 7 months post op and am still struggling with knowing how many calories I should be eating each day. I know everyone's doctor is different. I'm just trying to get some idea of how much others are taking in. My doctor says 800 is too much and his own dietician is telling me I'm not eating enough and should have about 950 per day. I feel like banging my head against the wall. I'd greatly appreciate knowing what others are doing or have done at this point post op. Thanks!

I wish there was just one master set of guidelines. Doctor's instructions seem to be all over the place.
