Wow. I've been at 1100-1200 for months. I guess it goes to show we are all different. There are days I only get 800 for sure. But I also know when I'm not eating enough, I stop losing. Like I said, we're all different.

Typically I range between 800 - a little over 1,000. Looking back at MFP My low for this week was 802 and my high was 1,088. I always hit 100gm of Protein but my Protein shake isn't very high in calories. I lose as long as I hit my protein level and exercise.

I'm way over then! Right now I'm at 1200 calories. Any suggestions on foods that are high sources of protein?

I ate a lot of chicken and beans during my purée stage and after along with my protein shakes that had 40 grams per bottle which was great.

@@Babbs Yes I stay at 800 a day, sometimes it's a struggle just to make that. That's why I keep shakes around. I eat small amounts throughout the day. Remember I don't exercise. I'm busy most of the day, if I were to exercise I would eat more if I could. My labs are perfect so I'm not worried and my labs are perfect without taking any vitamins or supplement. I just eat clean and healthy a lot of fish and seafood. I think my sleeve is pretty tiny.

I have no idea how many calories i eat- and it is quite liberating.

My dietician (i am in Australia so i guess that is the equivalent of your NUT) focuses on Low Cab High fat with no calorie counting or weighing- rather working for a hunger level of "satisfied'

On a typical day i would eat the following

Breakfast- Egg, ham and cheese omelet.

Lunch: Roast Lamb and veg Cauliflower, brocoli, Beans and aspargus.

Dinner- Spaghetti Bologonese (instead of Pasta i would make zucchini noodles)

I serve these up on a plate that is the size of a bread plate.

I am a 11 months out and have lost 40 Kg (88 pounds) and have about 14 pounds to go.

I sometimes add in a piece of fruit if i am hungry.

In terms of treats- i still have them (although my taste buds changed post surgery and i don't enjoy sweets as much.)
