I see you've been part of that discussion of calories on the other thread.. it does seem that many here who've done REALLY well and whose opinions I trust are telling me that the calories might be too LOW. I know I didn't lose well on the significantly lower calorie number... My weight loss just seems so much slower than some and I do wonder if I am being too strict on them.

If you add the fact that we're eating that many calories.. but have the malabsorption to deal with then our bodies aren't REALLY getting that many to use so maybe we are starving ourselves 'fat'?

That would seriously suck, wouldn't it????
