The first couple of months on soft food, I was between 450 calories to 600 calories - max. I'm now 4 months out and I'm between 650 calories to 800 calories a day. That's per my doctor and nutritionist guidelines.

Omg 1000 calories! I'm not even close! I do get all my Protein and liquids in, but I've only been consuming like 400 calories a day that's probably why I'm so exhausted. Thank u for replying

I'm the weeks out and in only getting between 300-400 calories a day also. Getting all my Protein and liquid in. I lost 10 lbs the first week and unfortunately nothing since. Hopefully things well pick up again soon. Getting a little frustrated seeing people dropping weight like crazy and I'm stuck already.

That was my fear going into this as for the last year and a half I was only eating one small meal a day. I'm so afraid this isn't going to work. I'm trying to stay positive and hoping the scale starts moving and I haven't done all of this for nothing.

I am the same. I get in about 350-420 calories per day and that is with sipping all day between Protein and liquids. I still am only hitting around 50 Fluid ounces and 45-50 grams of Protein. Trying to get more in every day. I have only lost 8 pounds since surgery almost 2 weeks ago.

I'm on soft foods now, and yesterday I got something like 465 calories in, but today looks like it is going to be more like 600ish, as I'm at 419 after lunch.

I am trying to focus more on my Protein and liquids, though.

When I told my NUT that I'm walking an hour a day he said I should try to get 800 calories per day and to never go below 500 calories. I'm four weeks.

I follow my plan and it's between 600 and 800 calories per day, depending on how much fat I consume. For the first few weeks it was much less. You are tried because you are recovering from major surgery. Try adding an extra shake to see if your energy level increases. And try to get rest between periods of activity.

If you are staying on your plan you are losing FAT. If the scale s less stresses you out consider not weighing yourself.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
