This time I am going to have gastric bypass surgery, so I am now the 6 month pre-operative process of weight loss that is required, and which is supervised by the medical team of the weight loss surgery clinic - so they go over everything. They were very glad to see that on my own I am used to keeping my calories so low - because 800 to 1000 calories is the recommended level post-op for the rest of my life.

Are you sure 850 calories is enough for you? What is your height? After I put in my stats into calorie calculator with my stats, I have to eat 2200 calories / day just to start losing weight! I've been amazed at the results. I just lost 12 inches and love sharing the news..
