How many calories do you get in a day?

Just curious to see on average how many calories are you guys consuming daily? How far out are you? I am 3.5 months out and get about 850 calories.

  • In the early weeks, the amount of calories usually correlates with how far out you are. 1-3 Weeks: 200-300 4 Weeks: 400-500 6-8 Weeks: 600-800 I was at about 800-900 until about 6 months. Then

  • For the first six months I stayed under 800 calories. For 6 months until goal, I stayed under 1100 calories. So it sounds like pretty similar to what you are doing.

    Great question! You read my mind. For the past 4 months I have not really kept a strict record. But I believe I started at 400 calories right after surgery and I think I'm up to 1000-1200 on more day

I was on 5-600 from months 2-5. I stalled for a week so increased to between 8-900. Started losing regularly again. I'm just over 6 months and keep under 1000 a day.

Ok. I'm confused and I could be a little slow today. If you stall, you up calories for a time then reduced and lost weight? Or lost weight just by upping calorie intake? Help me understand.

Eight days out and am averaging 484 calories/day. Before that I had the lap band for ~7 years and averaged about 1400 cal/day, lost ~129 lbs (before my unfill to prepare for sleeve).
