Do try to find free range or high quality eggs. I judge by the colour of the yolk - the darker the yolk, the more nutrients there are, which of course is determined by the feed the chickens get. I buy a brand called born three and the feed is geared toward providing an egg with high Omega 3, high Vitamin E, and they say they use no by-animal products or antibiotics.

eat eggs! yum!

and I agree with so many of the other girls: dizziness and blurred vision are scary. are you eating things with any artificial sweeteners? those can cause those symptoms in some people. I also agree that your weight loss does sound too fast. And I think it's great that you are slowly reintroducing the foods your body craves back into your diet. I'm sorry about the aversion to green foods, though...weirdly enough that sounds like a symptom of pregnancy! woah! are you sure that's not it?

Good luck!!

I had a tubal ligation 10years ago in which they cauterized besides cutting a section out. No pregnancy...just had my cycle this last week as well. Just too low in carbs and protein as everyone has suspected. I must use up the carbs too quick and the protein available must not be enough. Went to a party this evening for my husbands co worker and did have a spoon of taco layered dip with a few nachos to dip with, had a cup of cranberry juice and refilled cup with water the rest of the time, had about 3 glasses of water...then had a half of a brownie, later some carrot sticks. Earlier today had the chicken. I feel like I have pigged out though. This is all I have had today.

I am trying to preplan my food for tomorrow so that I can be in better control. Morning: I will have a couple of scrambled eggs with onion and green pepper.
Snack on apple or orange, or couple of dates and walnuts. Lunch I think a chicken/or salmon salad. snack later on some brown bread with almond butter. Dinner: Grilled chicken and grilled veggies with side of rice. I plan to ride mountain bike with my son in morning shortly after breakfast is done and cleaned up. Do a load of laundry and go for an couple of hours on the bikes. Come back, shower, and have a salad with the left over chicken from todays. Do little chores around house. Later in the day
maybe go for a road bike loop of 14 miles. Will this be too much food? I plan to eat from a saucer to keep portions smaller.
