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.

Definition. Classic galactosemia type I is a metabolic disorder. It causes a low level or lack of an enzyme called galactose-1-phosphate uridyltransferase. This enzyme changes galactose to glucose. Galactose is a simple sugar found in milk products. Glucose is the usable form of sugar in the human body.
