Do you eat in a day??  I'm two weeks post op  RYN, and I get in 300-400 a day. I only got in 41 of protein today. What is normal at this point??
Thank you!

I was told not to worry about calories at all and just worry about protein. I didn't start tracking my calories until I was in my long term diet.

Thank you!!  I just have this dream that won't go away that I'm not going to lose weight with this surgery!!  I know....it's silly but i just can't see myself down 100 pounds!!  I'm hardly eating anything and I worry it's too much!! I need to get over this!

I am only one week out, and only taking in about 200 calories a day. I am not hungry, but I panicked a little today because I know that is such little calories to stay alive! It doesn't make sense that we can survive on so few calories! I know doctors have this down to a science and I have to put my trusting them! I can't wait to go next week and hopefully move to phase two. What are you eating now? Wondering what I can look forward to! My scale goes down a pound everyday, so it must be working! Good luck! Blessings! Edie

For breakfast I have a scrambled egg, then late morning I try and get in a protein shake. For lunch and dinner it's an ounce of either deli chicken or fish with an ounce of cottage cheese or 1/4 cup of green beans.

I'm not really hungry myself other than head hunger! I live alone so being home all day by myself I'm pretty bored, and jus****ching TV.......
