I had a pretty big surgery 2 weeks ago, a sigmoidectomy. I am wanting to start to eat healthy again as well as lose weight that I simply can't afford to carry around anymore. Are my body's caloric needs greater now, or is my 1200 goal still okay? I'm trying to take it slow but really want to transform this time around. It's now or never.:smooched:

    Post surgery your body need calories to heal itself. This isn't the time to restrict calories.

    Thanks BigGuy. That sounds like good advice. I think I'll listen to my body and see what it tells me.
