How many calories am I supposed to be eating each day? I can't get a hold of my NUT and I realized we never went over this. Please help! Thank you.

My plan says to stay between 8-1200 calories past week 4 post-op, but keep trying your NUT.

I average 850 cal/day. I try to hit above 800 because I'm trying to avoid gallstones (~23% are at risk of gallstones after WLS surgery). I hope you can get a hold of your NUT since we all have different programs. One thing that is across the board is our main focus is on Protein & Water intake especially in the earlier weeks.

Im am only 1 week post op and I can only get about 400 calories in me. Im never hungry and after a few nibbles I feel satisfied. I am only eating Proteins blended with stock or low fat chicken gravy.

I'm glad you asked, I was just about to ask myself! 5 months post-op and typically range between 850-950 calories here lately. Wanted to make sure it was normal!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
