How many calories??

Rate this Entry
My insurance won't pay for me to see a nut. I can't afford any additional bills right now. So I must ask how many calories are you all consuming to lose weight. I am currently taking in 800 to 1000 calories. Any advice and guidence is welcomed.

    Ronnie. I see from your profile that you had your surgery about three weeks before me. I just went to the nutritionist yesterday. She said I should be getting 1200 calories a day. No more than 90/100 grams of protein. I should be be eating more fruits and vegetables and most of my carbs should be coming from the fruits, vegetables and yogurt I eat. I go to the gym 3/4 tomes a week for about an hour. Mostly the treadmill. She also said that I should up my water on work out days. Eight ounces per half hour of working out. Hope that gives you a starting place for your caloric intake.

    I ate 1000-1200 during my losing phase burning about 500cal 5x per week in exercise. 80+g of protein per day every day. I never really counted anything else. Worked like a champ. Lost 95 pounds steadily, (not particularly speedily) and was in maintenance by about month 10.
