6 inches off your waist? That's awesome! You're not happy with that?

Perhaps your muscles are growing and taking up the space of lost fat which is

why you're only seeing changes in your waist measurement (no muscles there

besides abs and they dont really " grow " do they?).

lisa-it can be very difficult at times trying to get

everything in my body that i need to stay healthy. i

recently started eating seafood and more tofu. i

substitute three of my meals with shakes and bars, but

i make sure they are pumped full of protein, and maybe

not so many carbs. i also eat the morningstar foods

that are " meatless " sausages, burgers, chicken

patties. also, eggwhites are great, too. does your

friend eat seafood? tuna is a great source of protein.

i'm not as strict on myself as some vegetarians, but i

will not eat red meat, chicken, or pork. not even the

stock. i would also suggest lots of beans. she could

cook them overnight and freeze the rest for later.

hope this helps a little.

Zither, I make my own shakes too but I use Crystal Light instead of OJ to reduce the carbs. What shake do you make using cocoa powder? .

dvberrey: Would you elaborate on the medical group that rejected the

mandatory vaccine schedule? Why are they lobbying for free market rates for

medical fees---fairness to the patient population?

It is an independent physician group and they oppose the rates that HHS has

set up for Medicare reimbursement, which are generally quite low and

sometimes below physician's cost. The AAPS encourages physicians to

" opt-out " of Medicare; that is, stop accepting Medicare as a form of

insurance and see patients independently. Some seniors can afford this, but

most rely on Medicare as their main insurance carrier. I tried to find the

link between this philosophy and their opposition to mandatory vaccines, and

I think they oppose the vaccines on the basis that the government shouldn't

dictate between the physician-patient relationship.
