stretching your sleeve?

1700 CALORIES IS NOTHING! I probably eat 2500-3000 calories every day, and as long as they're protein and fat it doesn't matter. If I ate 1700 CARB calories a day, I'd get fat as a pig and have lethal gas. (*grin*)

oh my gosh you are too funny, lethal gas is an understatment.....so true we can eat so few calories in carbs and gain but fats/proteins are our friends, but aren't they everyone's?  do i hear atkins?

My mom is a non-op, and up until she quit smoking she had no weight problem. Once she switched from cigs to pretzels, she put on about 50 pounds in a year. She is the ultimate carb addict---and world-class farter. For breakfast this morning she ate FOUR pieces of cinnamon toast. By lunchtime, she'll be complaining about being gassy...

This entire eating process is so original 1970s Dr. Atkins!  I am not one to complain.  It seems to work for me as it did back then.  Now, I am less tempted by carbs.  The less I consume of them...the less I desire them.

I am seven weeks p/o and can not speak for the future.  But, I really desire to NOT get started on any high carb foods.  They are my weakness.
