Try using the calculator at iifym.com. Choose the low carb or ketogenic option in Step 3 if you are watching your protein/carb/fat intake.
I think the result that you get there is a good place to start, but the general consensus on here is to eat within the 600-800 calorie range during weight-loss phase. I'm not too sure about the maintenance phase.

I'm about 4 months removed from RNY. I'm eating about 600-700 calories per day. Not sure I could eat more to be honest.
Have you spoken with your surgeon? I had issues with nasusea and vomiting and my Dr did an Edg and stretched the opening to my pouch. He also put me on ptotonix and carafate.
How many calories do you eat regularly? How many should someone under a year from rny be ingesting?
I am not looking for medical advice, really just a poll of what works/doesn't work. My doctor is happy with my progress, but no ine has ever asked about what I am eating or how much and when I requested an appointment with my nut thet said it wasn't necessary because I was doing so well.
If you've no****ched Fed Up,which can me found on Netflix you really should. It really shows the big business side's power and some really scary facts about children and how they process all of this information.
They showed a kid who was only 14 going in for bypass. I wasn't prepared of my lap and at 31 much less here I am at 39 looking for a revision and am just finally getting it.

The cake is a lie, but Starbucks is not.
Your very welcome. This doc was very eye opening for me. I find it interesting that of all the nutrients listed on food labels sugar is the only one not required to list a RDA (recommended daily amount). Tell me the Sugar Lobby doesn't have the government by the balls. The more I learn about the food industry as a whole the more I realize that the health of individuals is not even a consideration. It's big business and big money. People have to really look out for themselves and their health cause no one else is.
Are you on something for stomach acid (Protonix, Prevacid, etc.)? If not, it could it be that you need to be on one of those.
Are you drinking protein shakes? If not, and you can keep them down, that might be a better option for you at this point in time. Maybe your stomach's trying to tell you that it hasn't healed enough for solid foods?
Good luck to you. I hope you find the answer that you need and can't get back to a more normal life.
((Hugs))

I haven't tried them, but several people on here swear by the patch vitamins from PatchMD.com. If you check the bottom of this page, there is usually an ad for them with a discount code on it. I've just started using them and the fewer pill thing is freeing, but I haven't had any labs done since I started. So, I can't say whether they're up to snuff or not.

I wanted to say thank you for posting this. I've been working with myself and partner about the amount of sugar I eat and my addictive like issue I have with it. I started the video here at work but am going to watch this at home. My fears about sugar do seem to be proving out to be a real issue that I'm concerned about.
