Don't worry, we just need to adjust it slightly. Just add about 250 calories to your current daily calorie intake (so if you were just eating 2500 calories per day, you'd now eat 2750 calories per day) and then monitor what your weight does over the next couple of weeks.

A number sign (#) is used with this entry because classic galactosemia is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase gene (GALT; 606999) on chromosome 9p13.
Galactosemia is a rare hereditary disease that can lead to cirrhosis in infants, and early, devastating illness if not diagnosed quickly. This disease is caused by elevated levels of galactose (a sugar in milk) in the blood resulting from a deficiency of the liver enzyme required for its metabolism (breakdown).
