100+ To Loose

I use MyFitnessPal.com religiously. My clinic was very restrictive on their recommended plan - from what I have read here more restrictive than most. So, up until I was six moths along I was only allowed 1/2 cup of food per meal. 3 ounces of Protein and one Tablespoon of a fruit, a vegetable, or a starch. At six months I was to get 80 grams of Protein a day - that has only increased to a limit of 90 grams today. My protein normally is the mid 80s each day.

I looked back at MyFitnessPal.com, and about 25% to 35% of my calories are coming from carbs each day. My total calories a day are normally between 650 - 750, with 800 calories being my limit.

Regarding carbs, I love them! I miss them!! I have found that drinking more Water helps with the cravings. I also have not completely denied myself when there is something I really want. I take one or two bites, no more. I don't do it every day.

Hopefully you will find a way through the cravings. I have found that shear determination really can make all the difference. It is NOT EASY!! But the reward is SO worth it!
