2 months post op. according to Myfitnesspal, i am getting around 900 a day. this sounds so steep. I drink 2 Protein shakes a day 1 pre-made premier in two cups of decaf coffee spread throughout day. and One homemade with PBFit and fairlife fat free milk for breakfast and then normally a p3 protein pack and leftovers from a dinner for the other meals. seems so steep to be nearly 1000 calories. I am getting quite a bit of protein as well. Still losing consistently also, but makes me wonder if i got less calories would i lose faster?

program start- July 6

surgery- October 31

starting- 404.8

pre-op- 369.2

surgery- 362.9

current-321.8 (83 lbs down total)

Sounds good to me. I'm 3 months and get 700-900/day. If you reduce you could put yourself in starvation mode. So I would keep what you're doing your weight loss is amazing. I'm down 55. Trying to to keep my calories over 850. As much as I can

I dont think i was getting much of anything at all because i would just avoid eating. any Protein shakes i tried to drink were terrible. I finally found I can handle the premier in coffee and it tastes like my regular old sugar free creamer. and then found that i LOVE chocolate muscle milk with PBFit and fair life. so the protein is easier to get in now. and i know most of my calories come from the Protein Shakes. MFP says i should be getting 1800 and something so im still below about half that or right at it. and your loss is amazing as well! It feels good I just get so scared of overdoing it or stretching pouch even though I make sure to measure and take it slow. I could use work on my Water intake.

My surgeon wants me to keep it at 800 calories during the weight loss phase.

I'm averaging 700-850 per day.

My surgeon and nut would like me at 1200 cal and I have been happy if I reach half of it. Today might be the first day that I reach my 64 oz liquid goal!
