I get between 700-800 3.5 weeks post op....this includes 30 carbs, 70 protein and 30 fat...but my carbs and fat are usually slacking a little....I am not really losing any weight and my nutritionist is not too concerned, but wants me to watch it for the next couple weeks since I am not eating that many cals....Do you think if I increased my caloric intake I would lose more weight? I am going in for my 1st fill on Monday, which she does not think will make a great difference since I am not eating alot...any help is appreciated!! I am very strict will logging on daily plate too...so I know my cals are accurate!!!! Again any insight is greatly appreciated!:biggrin:

I was banded 2.5 weeks ago. I eat between 800 - 1000 cal/day. I haven't lost much since week one. After attending support group meetings and talking with my nutritionist, I am not going to fret over it. I was told the body needs adjusting and that takes time. Are you exercising? That could help.

Yes, i am exercising at least 3-4 times a week at the gym.....maybe I am just in a rut or something!

Im eating about 800-1000 a day too. And I have stop losing.

Thank Goodness I saw this! I am also 2 1/2 week post-op & have stopped losing. I am not eating alot (500-900) per day. It is all mostly protein because that's what my Dr prescribes. And I'm thinking What the Heck! So what's the deal? We're adjusting? I am so glad others are wondering, too.

I am 5 weeks post op and eating between 900 - 1200 calories a day. The past three weeks I have lost 1lb each week. I go for my first fill next week so I hope that will help some.
