If eating too much is actually making you ill, this is not a good thing. Really when it is so hot out i'd agree and say you should j ust be making sure to drink lots of water. Maybe you could make yourself some fruit smoothies or something ? If you want to get the calories up there, i guess the key is to eat high calorie but healthy foods (nuts, dried fruit etc). Anyway i think you are doing really good considering how hot it is.

Advanced Posts: 511 Group: VIP Member #18 Joined: May 30, 2007	Thanks gals. I totally agree. I went out today and got some high cal snacks - yoghurt and muesli, wheat crackers with veggie dips, that kinda thing. I also got salad sprinkles yesterday - sesame seeds, garlic seeds, sunflower seeds etc, to add some cals to my salads. So the rest of the week should be a breeze for me. TODAY: 120 - banana 350 - sandwich (cottage cheese/tomato/lettuce) 50 - about a cup or less of salad 200 - protein/health food shake 600 - dinner (quiche/basic green salad/about 8 hot chips) Mega water!!! 1320 TOTAL Hmmm...doesn't seem like a lot of food, but I'm STUFFED!

Yesterday I know what I ate, but it wasn't much and I know I didn't reach my goal. Today I am up to about 600 cals. Now helathy cals either and tonight is our roast dinner night at the tavern with friends, so we'll see how we go.
