I had gastric bypass 7 months ago and there is no possible way, at this time, for me to consume the amounts of food recommended in the book. I know that eventually I'll be able to take in quite a bit more food. I already consume around 70 to 80 grams of protein a day (mainly through protein drinks) but don't gt in more than 1000 calories a day. Nor is it recommend through my surgeons office for me to take in more than that though the day will come that I will. I've been doing some weight training so far (mostly machines). I'm cleared for any exercise routine I choose. Will I do damage to myself doing the intensity of lifting done in the book on a more limited caloric intake?
