falling short

edisun Posts: 10 Joined: 2005/09/30	2005/10/19, 08:38 PM I seem to be falling short for the last few days on the nutritional plan, mainly, carbs, protein and calories. The fats and vitamins and minerals are ok. But those 3 are each about 1/2 of what they should be. Problem is, I stay full. I am losing weight, but I don't want the starvation modes to kick in. Any tips? Thx.

For what it's worth, I'd continue doing whatever you're doing till you stall. You might want to add a whey supplement which makes it easier and also fish oil to keep your body supplied with healthy fats instead of the oil, butter, steak stuff although I'd kill for a thick porterhouse every once in awhile. :) Everyone has a plan (some good, some bad) but if your's is working for you don't try and do what the rest of us are doing. -------------- Mike in Pensacola Now.

It's making my wife sad that since she's pregnant and supposed to be gaining weight, I go and do something outrageous like this and ruin all her fun. Have added the whey, but its only 20g of protein and added a multivitamin. Haven't done the fish oil yet, just the fish..lol. But no real butter or oil, I try to use a light stock or fat free marinade to saute. I was just concerned that the lower amounts of protein, carbs and calories would slow things. I'm expecting the slow down to a few pounds a week, as if seen mentioned, but I'm not trying to rush to it..lol
