This is my opinion: One has to go with what they have and try to optimize when they can. In the end of the day, the mighty calorie is really most important, with the nutrients a very close if not near equally as important.....with this said, I say this is okay, if the the circumference of the other food items you eat are close to being on par and fits within your caloric requirement.....so, yes this is fine.

Self Inner-Peace. We all try to obtain it. But as we know, it sometimes can be elusive for some.
Eckhart Tolle
==========================================================
Get yourself strongly committed!
“Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Begin it now.”

The goal you desaire is within your capacity:

There are two kinds of power. One is actual power. The other is perceived power. Actual power is conferred by status or position in a given society. Those who have perceived power often do not have actual power but have the confidence of the masses.
The right person with perceived power can have a profound affect on the will of The People. This, in time, can force the will of the powerful to bend. . Those with actual power have money and weapons and armies to back up their power. Those with perceived power are merely backed up by a thought. That thought however, can defeat armies, make weapons useless and money obsolete because armies and weapons and money cannot stop a great thought or a great idea once it begins to take hold.

THE FRICKEN' POWER OF ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"The power of one is above all the power to believe in yourself, often beyond any ability you may have previously demonstrated. The mind is the athlete, the body is simply the means it uses to run faster or longer, jump higher, etc. First with the head, then with the heart, more than mixing brains with guts, it means thinking beyond the powers of normal concentration and daring your courage to follow your thoughts."

------------------------->Can you FEEL YOU! ROCK WITH YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
Feel me. I am strong and fierce, yet I am soft and gentle. I have much power, yet I am peaceful and loving. I can defend myself, yet I remain kind and giving. Feel who I am. I have much joy and passion, yet I am not dramatic. I do not indulge in negative emotions.
==========================================================
Do you mind being aware of your mind to transcend your mind?
(chillen)You can indeed be aware of your body, but you can also be aware of your mind - you can right now notice all the thoughts and ideas and images floating in front of the mind's inward eye. You can, in other words, experience your mind, be aware of your mind. And it's very important to experience your mind directly, cleanly, intensely, because only by bringing awareness to the mind can you begin to transcend the mind and be free of its limitations.
Ken Wilber
==========================================================
Self Inner-Peace. We all try to obtain it. But as we know, it sometimes can be elusive for some.
If you find your here and now intolerable and it makes you unhappy, you have three options: remove yourself from the situation, change it, or accept it totally. If you want to take responsibility for your life, you must choose one of those three options, and you must choose now. Then accept the consequences. No excuses. No negativity. No psychic pollution. Keep your inner space clear.

You only and always
have three choices
in any situation:
change, accept or leave.

Never say, "Wow, what a coincidence!" There are no coincidences. Everything happens for a reason. Everything that happens to you in life is a lesson.

Jackie and Beth:
"After a while you learn the subtle difference
between holding a hand and chaining a soul
and you learn that love doesn't mean security
and you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts
and presents aren't promises
you begin to accept your defeats
with your head up and your eyes open, with
the grace of a woman, not the grief of a child
and you learn to build your roads on today
because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain
and futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight
after a while you learn that even sunshine burns
if you get too much
so, you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul
instead of waiting for someone else to bring you flowers
and you learn you really can endure
that you really are strong
you really do have worth
and you learn and you learn
with every good-bye you learn"

another view of the story you told me
the things your mother did and what you had to go through had an influence on how you "turned out" and grew up
just as what i am going through is having a direct influence on how i will turn out as an adult
honestly, i dont see anything obvoius about this story in means of relating it to my life except we both had hard times to get through as teens with a disfunctional family.
but my real problem is my back injury, and i cannot see anything about that in your story

I gained 4 pounds of solid good weight in about 5 weeks (end of july to last port of August--from a modified zig-zag and a switch from splits to fullbody), and still as lean as ever). Im quite happy where I am right now, and I am in maintaining mode. And, thinking on what to do next. No problems to input. Front thigh healed quite a few weeks ago. Do a full body three times a week, and cardio 7 days aweek ( I have learned to like cardio, I used to absolutely despise it, but my body reacts very strongly to it, though now I push to create personal goals to beat with the fricken machine, lol). Its going well. Thanks for asking.
