how much to eat???

[limolady]

My Doctor says the following:

600-800 Calories daily

70-100 greams of protien daily

this is the hard part for me... Carbs Under 40 daily

CARBS... I have A big problem with my bowel movements, so I take 3 servings of Benefiber (36 carbs)

Fruit and some veggies (36 more carbs) not to mention the good tasting ones. Crackers, Rice, Noddles Bread

What does your doc say?

Thanks

I was told to have 60 grams of each a day, 60 protein, 60 carbs. I have 6.5 cc in my band so I cannot eat bread at all and thank goodness for that or I would not lose any weight. Have steamed veges if you can and cut out some of the fruit. Also, I work in the hospital and know that too much fiber can bind yu up so go easy on the benefiber

I was reading in another thread a very helpful formula. Don't remember who posted it but I thought is was great:

10 X goal weight = daily calorie intake needed.
