I was told by the NUT at my surgeon's office not to use them because the protein isn't absorbed.  You might want to check with your surgeon.

I'll be there.

That one person was the only one I ever heard having a problem with bed bugs.  I stayed there and there was nothing.  I wonder, too, if it was bed bugs, since she only got bitten on her legs.   I'm going down for a few days in October, and I plan on staying there again.

I have taken the Tylenol Gelcaps since day one.  I never had a problem swallowing them.

I'm in the west end and wouldn't mind another coffee night.

I get a lot of stuff from The Low Carb Grocery in Toronto.  Their shipping costs are good and I get it in 2 days.

My family doctor is doing my follow-up care.  I go to my surgeon with concerns, and if anything is required, my doctor here  takes care of it (prescriptions, etc.).

Good luck with your approval!

I had so many stalls I can't even count them!!  One lasted 6 weeks.  Keep doing what the surgeon says, get your protein and water in, and you will see the results.  Did you take your measurements before surgery?  If you did, take them again.  If you didn't, take them now and then once a month.  Even if the pounds aren't coming off, the tape measure will reassure you.  I didn't lose one pound one month and still lost 14 inches.

Amazing, Bonnie!  Congratulations on your wonderful success!

Nothing to it.  I had it at the lab where I got my bloodwork done.  In and out in 5 minutes.

Be strong, Lise.  Keep in mind that you are the better person, and can rise above all the crap.  It will be over before you know it.

I'll be thinking about you today.

Hi Terry,

I know Dr. Graber says 30 minutes before and 60 minutes after.  I know it's difficult, but sip continuously at all other times.  I would call Dr. Graber's office tomorrow about the aches - it could be just muscle discomfort due to all the moving around in there during surgery, but it will put your mind at ease if you contact them.  You can also email Dr. Graber on their website - he gets back tyo you within 24 hours.

I could always eat more than the teaspoon - try increasing it (with Dr. Graber;s ok, of course).  I'll see you tomorrow at Starbuck's.

Chris
