 I am 5 weeks out and I average approximately 400 - 600 calories a day.  I am only supposed to eat 3 meals a day and 2 protein drinks.  2oz. of protein at each meal is not a lot of calories.  I am focused more on my protein each day then the calories.  I guess as I am able to eat more, I will be able to get closer to the 1000 calorie mark.

At less than three weeks post-op, my food intake was governed exclusively by limited selection and designated portion sizes - I did not track calories.  If I had to guess... 400-600?
