PALS has a girth that has gone from 44 inches to at least 49 inches since starting Kate Farms. I believe this is around a 40 pound gain, but he appears even heavier. I have a request in to speak with Emory's dietician. We started at 2200 calories per the dietician and then dropped to 1800 calories per ourselves but his caloric needs seem less than this. He is 77 and on bipap. Does anyone have any idea of what his caloric need probably is and what is a good feeding that is less caloric than Kate Farms that Medicare will pay for.
