If you get the tests the same day, the Dr has to have time to read the tests that day. Techs usually perform tests and the doctors read the test at their leisure. Does this cardiologist understand your urgency?

I had an abnormal EKG, then an abnormal echo, then an abnormal stress test, then I had a cardiac cath. My heart is fine, it just beats different which I already knew. Anyway. It took a month. I doubt the cardiologist is going to sign off you having surgery just by giving you an exam, they are going to want more tests. Good luck.

Try unflavored Protein powder in broth. Also what kind of protein shake are you having? You need something thin, like Syntrax nectar or premier ready made. You don't want to make your shakes in a blender because it will add in air and make the shakes to thick. Just use a shaker bottle. Thin them out and sip on them I had Protein Shakes in the hospital, I had to be able to drink at least 1/2 to be able to be released. I had protein shakes from day one. As a male is important to get your protein in so you don't lose muscle, it is important for everyone really. The less muscle you have the less muscle you have to help you burn fat.

My flexees smoosh my booty up giving me a bubble butt where no bubble but exists. I like the look of the spanx one though

Trader Joe's Chai and Teavanna, weight to go are some of my favorites.

There is really nothing wrong with potatoes and rice. Most of the world eats them. The issue is preparation and quantity. High fructose corn syrup is a bigger issue than potatoes and rice.

If I take my car to a mechanic and he says he doesn't know about BMWs. I take it to the dealership. Unless you live some place with one doctor I don't see the point I educating a doctor. Information is readily available. If they wanted to know they would. I'm not going to educate a professional and pay them for their services also. What am I paying for?

@@CowgirlJane I think a lot of people are like that. That is how they get trapped in serial monogamy. The thing is once you get to a certain age, and you are looking for someone to have children with you don't have that time luxury, to date one buy for a few weeks to find out he isn't the right guy. I also think there is some disconnect on how we are talking because lets face it, meeting strangers, most of them don't make it past that first coffee date. Fewer make it past the 2nd date and so on. So even if you are texting and talking for 3 or 4 guys at a time. you might only get to date 2 with one of them. For women that zero in on one guy early on, the advice that most books have is to date more than one guy. But what qualifies as date now is more like talk to interact with. Dating now involves a lot of texting. *sigh* I'm not looking for marriage or someone to have babies with. I am just looking for a travel and activity partner with a bit of culture. My requirements kind of narrow my pool of men to choose from. I can't afford to text. go on a few casual dates with one guy at a time. What I am looking for is pretty rare in the age range I am looking for and I have to maximize results. I still think the whole dating thing is different with technology. When I was in college, you went out with someone, then that was your boyfriend. It was easy. Grown up life is complicated.

I want to work at this magical place with unlimited vacation.

Do you really think that would be well received from a Doctor? Most of them have egos bigger than Texas.

I mean they are supposed to do their own continuing education like any other professional. I don't think a patient should have to educate them. Obesity is an epidemic in the US. They should be researching what they can do to help their patients. If they aren't keeping up to date on some general things in their field how can you trust them? I don't code but I keep up on code for my career. If you are a serious professional you keep up to date on your profession. The bottom 10% of the class become Doctors just like the top 10%. Don't fix them, replace them.

Get a new doctor. It isn't like there is a shortage of GPs. I do however agree about getting your food under control. You can easily eat around your sleeve if you don't have your mental food issues worked out. If you read here enough you will find lots of people that are doing great at just that. Most programs and insurance force people into diets anyway. When I told my PCP, I wanted WLS. He told me there was a waiting list for it? I was like what? His nurse acted like it was a huge deal to find a referral for me and told me there was a waiting list. I never did get a referral from them. I got a suggestion from a friend of a friend and went to a seminar with the program I selected on my own. I did all the leg work myself and he signed what I asked him to sign. He was supportive but clueless about the process. I have a new doctor now.

I added a touch of red curry to my normal chicken salad. What a delicious, exciting little kick. I love the curry chicken salad at whole foods but it is full of sugar. This recipe will get me right through summer. Thanks for the idea.

How many dates do you think it should take for a someone to date another person exclusively? That is like a whole next level of a relationship.

You are almost at goal though! It is going to take a bit to get those last pounds off.

@@samy278 How long have you been stalled?

My questions were for @@gigisjourney5960@gmail.com since she said she hasn't been losing and isn't at goal yet.

Do you track your food? How many calories do you eat a day? What are your carbs? How much protein do you have a day?

I'm not sure why anyone dating would expect the relationship to be exclusive instantly. If someone wants an exclusive relationship there should be a conversation about it. Playing golf in the afternoon and going to dinner once doesn't make me someone's girlfriend. That is like some guy buying you a drink at the bar and thinks he owns you for the night. I really don't think that is normal behavior, especially not for GenX. Dating more than one person is not game playing. There is no reason to dedicate all you time to one person. Especially if you are a young woman looking for a partner to have children with. Dating one person at a time really narrows the net you can cast. Believe me these guys are casting the widest net possible.

The Starbucks cold brew is cold which is fine in summer but was annoying in winter. I like buy cold brew concentrate because I can have it warm if I like.

Stalls are good at least for me. After I stall out, I lose a lot of weight fast, it comes off in chunks. Then I stall, lose inches. Repeat.

I'm lazy I just buy my cold brew at Trader Joe's. We had a conversation about it a while ago. Someone else said they just use their french press overnight in the fridge.

Actually if you can handle oil without dumping, Adding some MCT Oil to whatever you having in the morning will give you a boost without caffeine. You just have to build up your tolerance to it, because it can cause diarrhea even in normal people if you aren't used to it. Start with a teaspoon and work your way up. If you blend shakes, add it to a shake and drink it down. It is flavorless. I like the Now Foods Brand. It is great before workouts for energy. http://www.amazon.com/NOW-Foods-MCT-100-Oil/dp/B00KPZXER6

You don't need a special brand, anything that has Micellar Casein is slow release. You need instantized whey for the day for sure to meet your Protein goals. I would discuss it with my doctor. I was thinking about adding a Micellar Casein shake before bed to help with hair growth, but that would on top of my regular protein goals.

I don't have any acid issues. I don't take anything for acid. Drink coffee everyday. Live Strong isn't exactly the mayo clinic. If you are concerned about acid, drink cold brew coffee.
