Calories per day with a sleeve

[skinnygirlbreakingout]

Hi guys. I am 2 weeks post op and wondering what kind of calories people are eating? I have been having on average 450 but half of that is coming from my pint of semi skimmed I'm supposed to have a day. Yesterday I managed 500 by having tomato soup with a teaspoon of light Philly cheese in. Just curious to know what other people are getting. Thank you xx

Hi. I was about 450-500 at the beginning too. I wouldn't worry though, it soon picks up as the swelling goes down x

Thanks tealovingsleever x I lost 9lbs last week and looks like 5lbs this week Chrissa. Bit disappointed it isn't a bit more second week out but then if I do 5 for next few weeks I'd be pleased.

OMG don't be disappointed, that's amazing! It will slow down so just enjoy it while it lasts. I get excited with 2 lbs now. Remember this isn't a race, it's for life and as long as you get there it doesn't matter how long it takes.

To get disappointed so early out will just make you miserable and you shouldn't have unrealistic expectations. x
