I am going into my third month post op. I have lost 45 pounds to date and am adding other foods into my diet. Is there a calorie amount I should stay within a day. I still can only eat about 3 oz at a meal and I usually get in two but try for three meals a day. plus all my water and 80 grams of protien a day. ANy suggestions.

Today is 3 months for me. I just went to my 3 month check-up last Wed. and talked to my nut about this. She told me that I should be getting around 850 calories day. I've lost a total of 61 pounds since I started this in January. Since the day of surgery I have lost 49 pounds. I have a little trouble getting my protein in, but I am working on that. I get 40 to 60 grams of protein in a day. They told me I was in the percentage that they like, but they would like to see me get in more exercise and more protein. Hope this helped. Charlotte

I was told around 800-100 calories. Less than this your body will start thinking it is being starved and shut down.
