Ummm.... I'd have to dig out my program guidelines to see what they recommend (currently they are upstairs in my room or I would check right now!)... but i can say that I eat lean protein and a few veggies and fruit, with the occasional off day/meal... and have had no problems.

I'm not a huge dumper tho... had a couple 'mini dumps' is all.


Now that I have said THAT... I gotta tell you!

1) Very good to see you!
2) You look flippin A M A Z I N G girlfriend!! :) :)

Yup!! You are looking great!!


I get the sugar thingI ate low fat for the first 4 monthsthen I switched to real fats. I'm assuming the fat grams is probably for your gallbladder (I had mine evicted last year). If you are going to do low-carb, you need to do normal fats (not low fat). From my understanding, you can't go low in both and be healthy.

Interesting imjj on the "you can't go low in both and be healthy". I am doing no carbs and low fat right now. I'll have to check with my doc. Thanks for bringing up that point! I also have no gallbladder.

Agreeing with JJ. I eat predominately protein, very low carbs in the form of the occasional silly small salad or watery type veggie, and I do Not worry about the amount of healthy fats. My food energy (calories) must come from someplace!

I second (or maybe third) the comments...You look maaaaavleous daaaarling!

Looking good hon!!
Hope you get the info you need, I'm not sure about the recommendations either,

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Clarification: I'm not advocating sucking on lard or eating spoonfuls of butter!! I'm talking about nuts, avocado, coconut, eggs, etc. - "Real foods!"

Most food marketed as low-fat are actually less healthy than full-fat foods because they replace the fat with sugar.

Thanks everyone! And especially thank you for the lovely compliments! :)
I'm feeling great and living it!! :)
