But keep it reasonable, dont go to mcdonalds for breakfast, the pizza hut, then Ben&Jerrys etc... Get what i mean? I allow myself a cheat dat once a week, but i try to eat healthy during the day and as i go through the night i loosen up a bit.

I know that my body still needs food (the calories) so I just take some protein shakes (and fish oil) and that's it......... I try to listen to my body. I don't loose weight nor do I gain any fat so I guess it's fine! -------------- - Nina :o) Les Victoires éternelles sont celles du coeur.

jrdebas Posts: 20 Joined: 2003/02/13	2003/03/07, 09:33 PM yea, i am in the same boat. we have to lay off of carbs, sugars, alcohol and focus on high fiber and high protien foods. remember to drink a lot of water, because the high protein could really hurt your kidneys if not enough water is taken. since you are about my weight, i think your water intake should be something like 1.75 gallons a day. -------------- JD
