thanks, laurel. no worries about advising unsolicitedly. i appreciate it.

somewhere along the line i thought i learned that calorie intake needs to be above 1200 or so to make sure you don't go into starvation mode. i've been aiming to keep it between 1200 and 1600... obviously ending on the higher end of that most days. i think i have a rather low metabolism, just based on how previous diet changes have affected me. what i mean by that is i think that my body's resting/base calorie use is on the low end of the scale. (i also tend to need a lot of sleep and be cold often - but maybe those are old wives tale measurements of calorie use. and my family tends to the heavy side, too. my mother has a terrible time trying to lose weight.) i don't know if any of those things mean anything. but i think, before the ibs diet, i was probably taking in 1800-2300 calories a day.

i'm glad my protein situation isn't as bad as i'd thought. thanks. more thoughts on the metabolism/calorie intake thing would be great.
