I use a website called fitclick.com everyday to track my calories, protein etc. and find it great. I am allowing myself 900-1200 calories a day. I eat carbs each meal (probably shouldn't) eat mainly cheese and meat or fish. I suggest you keep track of your calories. I am now nearly at goal. I am 112 pounds but would like to be 110 pounds... those last 2 pounds just don't want to budge. Also it depends how much exercise you do a day.

Hi, Laurie I noticed we were both at the same loss of weight and I have also hit a stall. If I have read right and your are located at a APO like myself has it been hard trying to find the foods u should be eating? I moved to APO 3 months after surgery and have noticed its harder to get the protein I need when the stores u know are not just around the corner.

I have researched diet/nutrition for years, and optimal macronutrient breakdown (i.e. %'s of carbs, fats, & protein), for fat/weight loss, is always a much debated topic.  However, generally speaking, (while there are always exceptions!), from the much research I've done, including working with National/International level trainers and nutritionists, the low-carb diet (i.e. 25% MAXIMUM intake of carbs) is best.  With that being said, this book, Ultimate Diet Secrets (available for free here) - http://spider.noxis.net/pub/fit/Dr.Ebook.pdf - was one of the most amazing and informative works I've ever read about diet/nutrition.

***Do not let the length scare you!  I originally hesitated from starting to read this book due to the length, but some of the advice/tips are priceless!***

After reading the book, I also contacted Dr. Greg Ellis and had a few consults with him; he is truly amazing!

Good luck and I hope this helps.
