I have an appointment with my PHP this week . But I have a concern and question for you pros. I never ate breakfast and lunch was a hit and miss but dinner everyday, now that I have started this 6 times a day eating change like all of you my protein intake has increased a lot. I am diabetic with no previous kidney issues. I have followed this plan for a little over 7 weeks , the last week I have had pain in my right kidney and it aches all the time now. I have kidneys stones but the pain is different with them. Have any of you had an issue with the increased protein intake?

I am so inspired by all of you I just want to send out a huge hug for everyone of you.

My surgery isn’t until October ( crossing my fingers ) .

Best to discuss this with your doc and have some tests done:) Could also be gallbladder if you still have yours.

7 weeks isn't really long enough to develop kidney issue from excess protein intake. Besides, you would have to be taking in massive amounts protein to cause damage. As in the 300 gram a day level.
