Wow awesome ! Congrats !

I'm in too. I think it's a different struggle when you have 100 pounds to lose instead of 5. Not harder, but different. It's nice to have a group who understands that. Feel free to add me anyone.

AMAZING!!!

Thanks everyone... Now I'm craving a grilled cheese sandwich

I'd love new friends. Different people at different stages make everything so much better.

I think it depends how big you are right now. It you only have 70 pounds to lose then that's a big challenge, and probably not to healthy. But if you were 600 pounds, then 70 might be doable. I hope that makes sense.

Hey everyone ! I'm always on the lookout for new friends on here. I find this site is so much better when you are interacting with people.

Thanks for that. I understand how weird it sounds to say I'm intolerant to protein. I am absolutely not saying I'm allergic to it. It's not going to kill me(I may feel like it will during a bad attack) but it's not. I just ride our the symptoms.

Nope not dead, and have an intolerance to protein.

I'm still learning about it all but all I know so far is my body reacts different to protein sources.

I do have problems with eggs which sucks because I love them. I could eat them every meal if I could.

Noone has ever brought to my attention the texture of the foods. Thanks! I'll keep an eye on that too. I never would have thought it would make a difference. Interesting.

I find I end up eating a lot of carbs because I'm hungry and scared to eat certain things. I need to pay more attention to that. Thanks for the suggestion, I'm going to try and figure out the least offenders. During the process I have also learned a lot about protein in foods. There are foods I never would have guessed…

Ya it sucks, but I'm at least glad we finally figured it out. I used to be in fear every time we went somewhere and we were going to eat. Now I can choose a meal accordingly.

I will 100% look into the digestive enzyme idea. Thanks! As for the ultrasound on my pancreas I want to say yes, but I am not 100% sure. There was a lot of ultrasounds. Thank goodness I live in Canada, and it's included in our heath care.

oh yes... no good. I have used soy and whey but I haven't tried Hydrolysate. I hear it's the highest quality of protein, and that scared me. With that being said, I also hear it's the easiest to digest. I just have to get my courage up.

I was going to say I hadn't try tofu since we figured this out but I just realized that would be a lie. There was some in a dish I had the other day, and I don't remember being sick afterwards. Thanks for the suggestion.

That's a good idea. My doctor and I had been concentrating on meat products, but I should really start evaluating the plant sources more too. I'm not a picky eater, and if chickpeas didn't upset my body I'd eat a bucket full of them.

They thought for a long time it was my gallbladder. Ultrasound after ultrasound after ultrasound and there was nothing wrong with it. I would get referred to another specialist, and they would send me for another ultra sound... I kept telling the specialists that I would get ill about 45 mins to an hour after I eat, but…
