 she has you guys to never go over 1200 calories?  at 6 months my surgeon wanted me at 1500. now i can't eat that much at all, but 1200 for life just seems super low.

I used the calculator and it is really helpful thanks a lot also. I eat about 79g of carbs a day I did not realize that the amount had went up thanks for reminding me that could be the problem.
I guess I made the mistake when trying to increase my calorie intake.

I agree, 1,200 calories seems low to me as well but those are the general guidelines they follow. She did also say that the program is adjusted individually, so I will see how it goes.  

My Dietitian is separate from my surgeon as I am in the Diabetes and Nutrition program the hospital offers; however, she is seeing me for both Bariatrics and Diabetes.  I am interested to see how this will all pan out in the future months.
