Just from talking to other VSGers and message boards of what other bariatric docs are doing I self-imposed the 800-900 range less than 1000 range. Truthfully, I'm trying to maximize this 'honeymoon' phase of losing.tzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12586960868908412491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998175413510216286.post-50416456812370341342012-08-12T04:47:07.071-07:002012-08-12T04:47:07.071-07:00I love seeing what other people are eating...and I...I love seeing what other people are eating...and I'm a dill pickle fiend too! :)<br /><br />Our dietitian has us aiming for closer to 1200, though I find I'm around 1000 most days. Do you think 800 is too low? I don't know much about the calorie counts because we don't count on our plan (though I personally count calories and protein grams.)Run, Chelle, Run!https://www.blogger.com/profile/10775497958512142768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998175413510216286.post-74312940643129625092012-08-11T21:49:26.331-07:002012-08-11T21:49:26.331-07:00I try for 800-900 cals a day, but usually end up a...I try for 800-900 cals a day, but usually end up above 90...1000 my top number.tzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12586960868908412491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998175413510216286.post-90557303570207922182012-08-11T21:48:43.555-07:002012-08-11T21:48:43.555-07:00I like the visual aspects too!I like the visual aspects too!tzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12586960868908412491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998175413510216286.post-29255880587504071862012-08-11T21:48:27.098-07:002012-08-11T21:48:27.098-07:00I've found that it's actually helped me wi...I've found that it's actually helped me with my energy...never realized there was a connection w/ D and energy...tzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12586960868908412491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998175413510216286.post-86030912775268949512012-08-11T21:47:33.891-07:002012-08-11T21:47:33.891-07:00yeah, jerkey is high in sodium...thankfully the mo...yeah, jerkey is high in sodium...thankfully the morning star stuff isn't as bad as a lot of processed food out there.
