I just wanted to thank the posters who recommended protein shots, and MyPlate.

I've been struggling to get enough protein each day. I don't care for the shakes, and I've been taking in only about 800 calories a day. None of it solid yet! I was starting to feel a little listless, and worrying that my hair might fall out. (I'm more afraid of that than starvation! Vanity!) I got the protein shots, and after just one day of ingesting enough protein, I feel better! So thank you!!!

And I love thedailyplate! What a cool site!!! For those of you who don't know, thedailyplate.com is a food journal, which calculates your calories, and keeps track of how many grams of protein, etc. Great tool! Thank you to the person who mentioned it!

I bet there are a lot of other great little tidbits people have discovered on this journey. Let's hear them!

I am really happy it is working out for you. I have been doing fitday.com and I love so much that I can see reports on my weight changes :0).

Where do you get the protein shots? Are they pricey?

GNC carries the protein shots, (1 case = twelve 2.8 fl.oz. bottles): $35.99

There are other forms of liquid protein as well. I bought one called amino fuel which has 100 calories per serving, and 23g protein. It's not a treat to take...but I just take it like cough medicine twice a day.
