Guest guest Report post Posted January 2, 2001 Debra, Everyone who signs up for a subscription to this list receives a list of low carb links. You should have gotten it by now. Take a look at it and find the link for the Induction Rules. Another good resource is the Low Carb Retreat. Between those 2 links, you can learn just about everything you need to know about the Atkins WOE. Here they are, in case you missed them: Induction Rules: http://www.titanic.kn-bremen.de/induction.html The Low Carb Retreat: http://www.lowcarb.org/ Welcome to the list!

Guest guest Report post Posted January 20, 2001 Thanks Kirstie I went to the site and I saved it. Im going to check this one out shortly. Thats a good idea about the Dr. I asked the pharmacist in my local eckards about suppliments and I basically got a shrug of the shoulders from him. I think it was along the lines of he had more important things to do. Thanks for the warm welcome backs ya'll! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest guest Report post Posted January 20, 2001 Hey ! I've been using www.fitday.com to track things and I love it. It also keeps track of nutrtional values too - I input my multivitamin and am now taking calcium and/or calcium/magnesium on those days when diet and the multivitamin still leave me short. I'd talk to a pharmacist or your doctor about an appropriate amount of potassium to take. Kirstie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He really had me thinking >> Josie....Just because your hands are not red or swollen doesn't mean a thing. If your lupus isn't active at the time then they wouldn't be. I don't have swollen and red joints ALL THE TIME......not that I want you to have lupus, because I don't, but these Drs. think they know it all. I would have felt better if he did some blood work. Hope you make out better with your next visit. Are you going to a Dr. in Maine? In regard to where I live. I live in Central Mass. I have been to Maine many many times. I love it there. The beaches are great. Do you live near a beach? Love & Friendship, Ellen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OOB is my favorite. We use to rent a condo there every summer until we bought a trailer in NH. We no longer own the trailer. I haven't been to OOB in a while. My hubby loves the ocean. We have been spending our vacations doing different Island by cruising. I was always lucky (until this year) that the sun didn't bother my skin, although it always did activate my lungs. Just this summer have I had skin problems from the sun. It has been months and they still have spots left. I will be praying for you for your next visit.
