Drinking a lot tha am trying to eat some retries beans with little sour cream,cheese and crushed gree olives. I am go grateful my taste buds still like green Olives!,,,, Good news I am down 23 lbs!

Good morning, Day 11 here and I feel very anemic ( been dealing with it my Newhouse.e life) I am taking the Iron from the doc and juicing careens daily but had a very rough night Of sweating leg cramping and over all fatigue . I have been a Floridex all natural kelp base iron liquid for 20 years. Has anyone had experience with taking this with a new sleeve? ( did send a message to my doc about this too) Thanks for you help Moira

Buckeye, I agree! I am using the same product! It is not bad and I wait ti brush my teeth for after.

I have spent the whole day thinking about the scale! This thread has been so supportive! Thank you all for your thoughts, perspective and wisdom. I did this because I was becoming a cripple! I need total knee replacement, degenerated disks in neck and back,sleep apnea , high blood pressure and more. I did not do this to be a model or more beautiful ( I know that I am beautiful already ). I want to be a happy, positive person, not in pain, and light enough that I might hold off.knee replacement for years. The scale it not a tool I am going to use at this time. I am only going to weigh in with my doctor for now. I just want to heal well, get off the liquid diet and start my road to true mobility! Thank you all my VS friends. It feels good to be able to be related too. With ,y deepest gratitude Moira

Hi nikki, GNC has a great whey powder that is unflavored. The protien shots are so full of additives and fake color and flavor that it really does cause some indigestion If you have a juicer or can get your hands on o e for while, try spinach, apple, carrot and put in the whey protein. Try to go as natural as possible. The GNC whey also mixes well in soup. However do not bring it to a boil thought or it clumps. Good Luck Moira

Do you have any soft food recipies.

Cindy, Thank you!!! I to did my surgery for health reasons! You are so right!

Awwwww bean you make me smile!!!!!!! No fish smoothies for this girl, And thank you for the whey Protein info. Your the best Moira
