Guest guest Posted March 11, 2003 Report Share Posted March 11, 2003 Ok here is a question for you Why can I eat more of somethings and less of others? Candy or cakes don't bother me not that I eat everyday but when I do have it I'm ok. Also why would I gain weight I hardly eat the way it is...this 3 lbs i gained has me in the slumps...

Try upping the protein shakes or start them if you aren't doing them now. Or try going back to the basics (like a new postie).

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2003 Report Share Posted March 11, 2003 I wish I could get some sleep Jeanne... this fibro isnt helping me sleep, and neither is the pain underneath my right rib cage.. I am also having some cramping in my feet and lower legs.. I think my potassium needs to be rechecked again.. I am calling my doctor in the am and seeing if I can see her or the nurse practitioner. I am sorry that your girls are sick.. I hope and pray that they are both better soon.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2003 Report Share Posted March 11, 2003 Barbara - Carbs go down much easier for many of us than solid proteins. Are you eating too many carbs? That would be a reason for your weight gain. If you are able to eat a whole piece of cake or eat regular candy, then it sounds to me like you might be eating too many carbs. Go back to the basics - protein first, then veggies/fruits, then carbs. Make sure you are drinking enough water and supplement with at least 2 protein drinks a day. Those 3 pounds will disappear again in no time. Take care. Jeanne in WI Age 39 - Dr. T. Chua Open RNY - 5/21/02 5'7 " - 314/218/150-175 djgraves@...

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2003 Report Share Posted March 12, 2003 Hi - I had the same thing - pain under my right rib cage - (couldn't sit, couldn't stand, etc.) also pain in my feet and legs. I went in and was given more calcium tablets. I now take 1000 mg a day - the pain cleared up in 2 days!!!! When I went in for this I was 4 weeks post op and thought I was dying - besides that I have not had any trouble.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2003 Report Share Posted March 12, 2003 Dear I am not sure of anything about this pain.. I wondered if it could be due to my fibro or lupus flaring.. I hope to get in to see the doctor tomorrow, but if not, sleep and pain meds will prevail until I feel better.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2003 Report Share Posted March 12, 2003 are you sure this pain under the rib cage is not fibro related ? I was told we can have it run from there to center chest and makes some of us head to the ER thinking it is a heart attack but get checked and be sure TN Re: WEIGHT !! > I wish I could get some sleep Jeanne... this fibro isnt helping me sleep, > and neither is the pain underneath my right rib cage..

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2003 Report Share Posted March 13, 2003 Sugars will always go down easily. They do not require digestion to make you gain wt. They just slide right thru. And apply them directly to your hips (or chins, wherever). Good food like meat/veggies sit and make your pouch feel like you ate with very little volume. And what nutritional value you get is not wasted on fat but utilized in the body. Thanks, Vitalady, Inc.
