Topic: Good Morning

Good Morning all..

Today is a short day for me. I get off at 3:30 but have alot to do before hitting the gym and doing to some running.

I am going to pick up some Carls Jr. coupon books and start selling them are part of my fund raising for APLA. So if you would like to order some let me know. They are $5 each and a great gift idea for the holidays. They are good for a whole year and have some great discounts in them,. Just let me know.

I wish you all a great day.

I am a "body by Mariotti."  Dr. Eric Mariotti in Concord has done my tummy tuck, breast augmentation, butt lift, arm lift, outter thigh lipo and thigh lift.  He is an amazing artist and takes alot of pride in how he helps massive weightloss patients.  The aftercare you receive from his office is amazing as well.  I highly recommend him to anyone having any plastic surgery done.

My friend used Dr. Kauffman in Sacramento. She is very happy with her results and he gives a 10% discount to people who have lost 100 pounds or more.

Topic: RE: Anyone else having trouble getting in enough calories? (x-post)
 Thanks, Brian!  I LOVE Wendy's chili.  It's a rare treat as the closest Wendy's is 2 hours away.  =]  When we go that way, though.. I get some.  
  As far as the protein only diet.. I hadn't been getting enough food, so I wanted to make sure that what I got was high in protein..   Even so, I am still only getting like 78g a day.  
  BMs are good.  I use Benefiber in my protein coffee drinks.  
 I have been doing better, I think.  I haven't been tracking as I should the last couple of days, but I ate a few green beans with my 1/2 porkchop tonight.  I ate some bread this morning.  I bought bananas today to take to work with me.  

Hopefully, I'll get this figured out soon.  =]

A few things in no special order.  You may want to talk to your surgeon.  That caloric intake is very low and can cause problems.  Could you have a stricture? 
Sort of a personal question, but with high protein and very little vegetables are your bowel movements OK...Are you getting enough fiber?  Just all protein and nothing else seems unhealthy.  Nuts can add to the protein...but are not balanced if you don't add vegetables.  You may want to try Wendy's Chili with or without cheese.  You may be lactose intolerant on the dairy issues.  You also may want to put some food on the nightstand...If you have to get up in the middle of the night...have whatever is on the nightstand for that extra calorie/protein lift.  When I first was losing I put a spoon full of cottage cheese or yogurt on the nightstand...Just me.  Plain carrots and spinach leafs are good eats also...Bananas are good for potassium...If you don't dump on them.  Hope some of these help.  Brian
