- thanks for the encouragement.

[Guest guest]

Thanks, . I'll try the recipe. It's important that I keep eating at this point. Usually I eat for a few days then don't for a few, so I'm trying to push through this period of no appetite, yet hungry tummy. It's a weird thing, to be so hungry yet not want to eat, then I get so weak it's hard to break out of that and shop and prepare food. So I need all the encouragement I can get just to keep eating. I went out about a month ago and bought some jeans at the Thrift store, sizes 3 and 0. I don't want to be a size 0. I'm only 5'3" but feel I should weigh more than my current 105. Now those jeans are falling off of me. So my goal is to fill out those size 0's! Thanks again, Carianne. Skoog wrote: Hi Carianne, Sounds great with the food! Way to go on giving up grains! I make a nice dish which is a combo of some foods you mentioned. I saute diced zucchini, carrots, onion and sometimes garlic in olive oil. Brown some ground meat (I use buffalo, but beef or turkey are fine). Season everything, mix it togetether and put in a baking dish, top with cheese and bake just until cheese melts. Anyway, butter is fine. I use it for eggs. I eat 3 a day too, generally in an omelet. Cottage cheese is fine and good protein as long as you don't have issues with dairy. I'm not sure about the pineapple and the honey in tea, but will know. Pineapple juice sets me off. I started using it in marinades and soup stocks, and I might as well have eaten a bag of cookies for how it affected me. However, I do seem to be able to handle a dab of raw honey here and there. Some food issues are general and some are personal. About the nuts. It is important to use raw nuts, and not peanuts. The ones that work best for me for snacking are almonds and brazil nuts. Brazil nuts are meaty and very satisfying. I use pecans in my goatein shake to increase flavor and calories. I also use almonds in vegetable stir-fries. Want to be your own boss? Learn how on Yahoo!
