7) He is losing weight after not having the nutrients bag of extra calories. Cannot eat much of the baked goods, as too much nut flour gives him diarrhea. I'm going to start making the yogurt with cream, rather than whole milk. Any other tips for adding weight? He was up to 194 two weeks ago (while on the nutrients bag), now down to 184. (He's 6'4 1/2" and feels, looks his best in the 190s.)I have UC and have had weight loss issues as well. I can't really answer any of your other questions yet, since I'm just restarting the diet. (I was sort of forced to go off it for a few weeks to try to gain weight, but it didn't really help. I lost weight again and now have diarrhea D= ) THe things I'm going to try for weight gain are avocados, ice cream (made with yogurt) and pumpkin/squash pie filling. You can go on fitday.com so track your calories to make sure he's getting enough. I figured out the calories for a few recipes by adding up all the ingredients and dividing by how many servings it makes, and for the ice cream I got a whopping 440 per cup!!! Not 100% sure I did my math right, but others on here have said it's calorie dense as well. Cheese and honey are calorie dense too, but that all depends on what he tolerates. I'll be sure to keep you posted on my further results though! GOod luck! Pour Dieu, pour terre,Alyssa =D
