  1. How the F*** can you gain 3 pounds when eating under 700 calories a day? I sure as heck don't know but I am getting more discouraged as each days passes. I was off the scale for a week and gained 3 pounds. Am so pissed and beginning to regret what the heck I did to my body.

      No I do not need to poo as that has been happening since I finally was able to eat vegetables

      Do you have some other illness that cause you to limit your protein? 60 is the bare minimum for an adult. Someone that has been morbidly obese for a long time has a lot of muscle from carrying all that weight around, our protein requirements are higher.

      Herniated and bulging disc, spinal stenosis, ridicular neuropathy, half of a right hip bone, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Ulna nerve damage a frozen left shoulder and the inability to walk for more than 5 minutes without 2 canes or a walker without extreme pain in my back. Is all that considered an illness that should cause my Dr to limit my protein? I don't think so, but he insists that I not eat more than 41 grams of protein a day. Today I emailed a Bariatric dietitian who works for another Dr and asked her if she would see me so I can discuss with her the fact that my Dr only wants me to eat 41 grams. I hope I will hear back from her.
