I think the rough estimate is that 18 calories per day will sustain a pound of weight. It's frequent, small "meals" from what I've seen. There's also the side effect of only a bit of alcohol hitting like a ton of bricks after a few sips if my mom's friend who had gastric bypass is any indication. I've also heard from nutritionists and dietitians that losing more than two pounds per week on an average sized frame means that you're losing lean muscle rather than water weight and fat.
