1700-1900 calories would leave me wanting. And I don't eat high protein either - 80g a day. My perfect weight is 60 kilos, which I did achieve before I started my on-going weight gain (see journal).

Yes I would LOVE to believe this would work for me, but I've noticed in the past when dropping protein to 60g and upping fat a lot I did not lose anything - apart from maybe some muscle. But then my carbs were uber-low as well. Maybe the secret is in increasing the carbs.

I wish there were some explanation as to why carbs are better than protein for getting glucose. Wish I spoke Polish for that matter, then I could probably find out. Anybody know?
