I'm 3 and a bit weeks post op

Follow your NUTs instructions.

The primary focus post-op is getting in all of your Protein and fluids. Calories are a secondary consideration.

Getting in enough protein and fluids (and vitamins) are critical for both healing and weight loss.

Since you are at three weeks post-op, you are probably about to or already experiencing your first stall.

Since none of us lose at a constant rate, stalls are a normal part of the process. I recommend you read this post I wrote a while back which may help you.

Best of luck with your journey.

Embrace the Stall!

Thanks for the reminder! It is certainly a battle for life that we can't let the food win!

1000 calories/day is fine...on the low side, a little bit. Eventually you'll be shooting for 1100-1300cal/day for weight loss, while keeping your Protein up at about 70-100 grams/day.
