Hi, Jo Ann,

When you step on Dr. K's scale, the one that prints out a ton of

information, one of the things it tells you is now many calories you

need to maintain the weight and BMI you are at. That was news to me! He

gave me a printout of all the printouts since my initial consultation.

Sandi et al;

When you go next time, tell the assistant who weighs you that you would

like a copy of all the printouts. They Xerox a copy before you go in to

see Doc.

PPS, In class today, , one of the kids in class, had a t-shirt that

I couldn't quite read. So I asked what it said. He straightened up,

pulled the shirt down, and it said:

H E R E I A M

What are your other two wishes.

I want a shirt like that!!!!! But, he is young and very cute, and I'm

old and very fat. Wouldn't work on me. LOL

Hi Mellie!

I know what you mean about the gas masks looking smothering. I can't stand

an oxygen mask on my face -- it makes me think I am being smothered! Our

poor troops who have to move around in those things -- well, my prayers are

with them.

Hugs and blessings, Ann

Hey Guy,

Check your scales with another scale. I showed a 2lb weight drop on my

scales and went and checked it against the one I had been using at Kmart, and

I was surprised to see a drop to 314lbs. Today I reweighed to see if it was a

fluke, and got 315....Still a drop to 62 lbs lost. I have also cut carbs to

almost atkins level, but not quite(Ate cornbread one night, and a sandwich

the next). Increased the protein. I am wondering if you wouldn't be better to

try and get your protein in the way of food and not rely on the liquid stuff?

I am worrying about you and thought about not posting until after you

had seen the good doc, but thought maybe I could give you some encouragement.

Here's hoping a little lasix will catch you up with me.....LOL. ((((Hugs))))

Thanks ,

I saw my GP (sorry PCP) last Wednesday. According to his scale I am 337

which was pretty much what my spring scale told me. That means 30 pounds

in almost 5 months total. I was up 25 pounds though until I stopped

eating anything except salad and drinking the pre-digested protein (not

protein drinks), walking 3+ miles per day, and doing the exercise bike 2

hours per day. I might as well not has the DS with all this exercise and

only minimal weight loss. I need to find out about the Paso water

aerobics, but don't know who to talk with about that.

When I see doc on the 22nd, I'm really going to push hard fro the pani,

particularly after reading his post to (who was it on this list?) the

pani question.

Thanks for caring, you and the others on the list too.

Jim
