I normally just read to get help from the forum, but I am in desperate need of help with some suggestions with food choices. I am 8 weeks out today and down 40lbs, and I am very happy about that, but all I am eating is protein. I havent had fruit, vegetable starches or anything in 8 weeks. I need to incorporate a balance diet as well as keep getting in my protein. I am trying to only drink at least one protein shake a day. As a result of too much protein and not enough fiber (I guess) I have become extremely constipated, and as a result of the constipation my stomach is in major pain as well as a lower region that Im sure everyone gets . I am so miserable right now and need some meal suggestions.
