THAT (the hungry, run down, and grumpy phase) is where I'm at, and it's SO tempting to slip back into eating way under caloric goal. How long does this last??
-
How much should I expect to gain initially before my body is used to the "new food supply"? (are we looking at 5 lbs? 10? 20??)

Also I've heard you shouldn't eat fats and carbs in the same meal (but always protein with each) - is this true for weight loss?
-
Thanks for your help. I guess it just takes a lot of faith to eat MORE in a situation like this. How long will it take to see it go the other direction? I hate starvation mode!

30-45 mins brisk walking 6-7 days a week, and just started Jillian Michaels 3x a week.

Thank - you! It's encouraging to hear that someone feels along. About the delayed effect on my daughter - they say your body nourishes baby first so if anyone suffers, it's the mother. Also if she's gaining normally then there's nothing to worry about (ped and my Doc both said this).

I am in regular contact with my Dr and he says we're making good progress. MFP has just really showed me how far I need to go yet, I guess... any high protein ideas? (other than eggs and nuts?)

Thanks everyone for your input. I guess I should have added that I used to have an eating disorder so this is eating a lot for me already. My baby is def important to me and her health comes way above my own, but I need some ideas. After having her, I can't tolerate eggs or nuts. My breakfast protein shakes are all…

Thanks for the tips, I'll try to open my food diary. Can you see it now? Yes, I'm huge on peanut butter but my baby seems to be sensitive so having to cut it out now :(
