How far along are you? How many calories do you average? How many (net) carbs? (If you don't know net then just carbs in general) In a day. I know everyone is different with different recommendations I'm just curious as to the numbers. ( I say "actively"because I know some people are in maintenance, I say "losing" but I'm aware of stalls so it still counts if you are In the process!!!). Thank you kindly in advance!!!

It's great to see at least some people have nuts and surgeons that don't believe in starving their patients after surgery!

Kindle, I agree! And it seems to be working pretty well. Just over 4 months and I've lost 83 pounds and my husband has lost 80.

I am 38 weeks post surgery. I think that I eat more calories and carbs than most posting here. I track everything on MFP and track an average of 1000-1100 calories a day, 100 to 120 gms of carb & same amount of protein. I also do intense strength training and cardio 5 times a week with 350 to 600 calories burnt according to my Polar watch. Can't be too much wrong with that since I have lost a 100 lbs so far! Just not as quickly. I have lost about 10 lbs per month and for the last 3-4 months, it's been 5-7 lbs per month. I am happy though! One thing I notice: When I was working out a lot and not eating enough calories and carbs, I stalled and felt bad overall. Now, I feel great and full of energy. On the flip side, I also know that if I am to stop exercising like I do, I will have to reduce my calorie and carb intake. For now, I think I have got how this works for me!
