Shots! Really?

So... I'm back from a LONG long break. And was wondering how you were doing.

Yeah but do you count your tea into your water/fluid intake? Hey, trust me, all nurses are not made equal chickie!

Hi True Heart--
How are you doing? I think we chatted the other day. I loaded May 12 & 13. Today, Sunday, is VLCD8 for me. I only lost .4 today...but I expect this week to be lower. I'm having trouble drinking the 3 quarts of water I need to drink each day; I love Vitamin Zero Water but don't know if I can drink it or not. It would make my life easier!! Hope you are doing well.

Hey chica! Glad your weigh in went well and SO glad you're taking a multivitamin. Make sure you're getting enough potassium in your system... you'll know if you are or aren't if you start getting cramps in your legs. The clinic I'm going to says at least 64 oz of water a day and you can replace some of that with green tea. The people on here drink a lot more than that... I tend to drink a little more. I drink about ... maybe over 70ish to 80ish a day. What i would suggest is count your tea as part of your water intake. However, take my advise with a grain of salt (not literally you salt fiend lol) as you're losing a lot more than I am... I keep sneaking.

Well, it could be worse. I have stalled now for 3 days. Nothing up. Nothing down. They say people do this and then loose quite a bit on day 4. We'll see tomorrow. You're doing great. (-.4) What ever you're doing seems to be working. It really makes you think about what it was we ate the day before, doesn't it? TTYL. Have a good day!

Just checking on ya. How goes it? I didn't loose anything this morning. (didn't gain either)

Hey lady! Glad to hear about the vitamins. Did you go to the clinic yet? I'd write down a list of questions to ask them. You might need more than just a multi-vitamin. 500 calories leaves a lot of defecits in a diet. You're basically tricking the body into starving itself, but you are kind of starving yourself of vitamins and minerals with the drastic decrease of vitamins a day. Make sure to ask about your liquid intake as well. The place I go to tells us to eat at least 25 grams of protein a day. Also to make sure you get enough fiber. They've suggested 2 glasses of Kelloggs K2O. It's 30 calories each serving and goes into 20 oz of water. It helps increase your fiber and keep you regular and it has 5 grams of protein in each serving as well. And it's pretty yummy. Hope this helps.

I would love to be friends with you. Yes! I don't know how to add you as a friend, but I will work on it.

It shows up on my About Me tab... that's why! Duh Me!

I don't know why my ticker isn't showing up?
