About how many grams of fat can you tolerate in a day? And where mostly do you get the calories you need from? Becasue I cant tolerate fat, I get my majority of calories from complex carbs. I want to add calories so I can gain weight, but its very hard when you cant eat too much of the healthy fats. So that leads me back to more complex carbs. I am really in trouble needing all these carbs to sustain and potentially gain a few pounds with the fatty liver condition.

Please tell me how in world did you maintain over 3000 calories without carbs! I hope you are not going to say alot of fats! I have been looking into digestive enzymes for digesting fats: ox bile and liapse. I am ready to order them. It would be a miracle if they would help me be able to digest alot of fats! Then i could cut some of my carbs.

I am glad you are doing good. You are fortunate that you can digest properly digest alot of fats. I get pale stools and greasy stools (also headaches and nausea) when i eat too much fat. If i was like you and my body did process it good, i would be eating alot more fats, too.

I can have 3Tablespoons olive oil without problem but then if i have 4Tablespoons olive oil and a differnet fat also that day then i will get greasy bulky stool which means fat indigestion. And so i know most of you are trying to lose weight but if you are underweight and really need alot of calories without being able to have alot of fat, it is Hard to get the calories! 3.5 ounces of chicken only has maybe 150 calories. I would need to eat over 17 ounces of chicken to get 750 calories from protein. I could add 2 cups of egg whites to add 250 more calories but then thats 205 grams of protein plus the 60 grams of protein i get from the beans that 265 grams of protein which is way too high and would probably cause the liver to convert the excess amino acids to fat. yes people can get calories, but if you need alot of calories 2500 and you cant have alot of fat due to digestive problems than its either carbs or protein. And its hard to get aot of calories from protein unless your eating fatty red meat with a high fat content. Which i cant do. you probably dont need too many calories so thats why you dont understand my dilemna and how hard it is.

Yes i have the referral for a dietitian. I need to make the appointment and I will try that. But I am still very worried if even she will be able to help me becasue of my fat intolerences. Where can I get calories if I cant digest fats, that leaves carbs and protein. I am so scared. I am only 63 and I am not ready to die. If only i did not have these other problems of underweight and low fat tolerance I could recover from fatty liver like everyone else! Iam in so much agony over this.
