thats ok.  Look at that protein.. I rocked on it today.  My carbs havent been that high in a long time.. opps.. oh well. One day of fun wont hurt me.. I deserve it. See you all tomorrow Carla

Still itching and tomorrow I am cutting the egg and amino acid. Might be a build up of sulphur, I am very sensitive. Believe me now when I say I am not a foodie...this is  why I don't like to eat. I did manage to get in some calories and protein but getting very tired of same old stuff! I am boring myself!!  I think I edited this 3 times. Can't get it together I am too itchy.

With all your food allergies how did you ever eat a lot.  lol.. Still low on cals although the other numbers are good.  I wish I could help you with your itching.  I know you must be miserable. Take care Carla

Carla my diet is absolutely "no different" now than prior to gaining only thing I added was isolated whey protein.   I had a stroke in dec. 99 (weight was 119 at time)and spent 16 months in a wheel chair...2 months on loft crutches then learned how to walk again in 2001 with a cane. I rehabed myself. My weight gain came as a result of no exercising when I was a daily runner. I couldn't even remember my address or phone number for at least 5 months. It was 30 lbs then 30 in less than a yr. After a blood transfusion in Apr 2001 gained another 20. That was enough for me...got my butt in gear and started research. Never in a million yrs would anyone believe me that I had WLS. I moved to Fl and had seen no one I knew  until last yr when I was down to 122. LOL So I didn't get those looks...I never went out of my house those 4 yrs (2000-2004) I was overweight only to Dr. It wasn't menopause either I went thru that at 35 but my surgeon assured me I would loose it but it was only 2 lbs a week or less but he was right I lost it all.

Wow.. I know many have started out like that and because of something beyong their control that happens.  I am glad you got your life back and are doing so wonderfully now.. minus the allergies. Stay good and true to yourself. you are an awesome person. Carla
