Dianne, Your new photo looks great!!! I am glad that you are able to get more calories in and that your energy level is up. You are doing great!!!! Becky P.

Tina - I am so sorry to hear that you are still having problems. Have you talked to your surgeon lately? You may need to be seen and checked out. Until then... Have you tried soups? I know that if I am having trouble eating enough, soups sometimes can go down a little easier, and they give me a protein hit that I need. I try to do navy bean with ham or split pea because they are easy on the tummy but they have some protein as well. You might try doing some peanut butter or protein balls, they are usually pretty easy on my stomach too. If worse comes to worse, you could do protein drinks (not my favorite thing!). Good luck and hang in there. Cheri

Thank you... I am doing good. I am working really hard right now to build my muscle mass back up, which means I a=have stalled and gained a bit but that is OK.... I'd rather be a six and muscular than a 4 and weak! LOL! I plan on attending some sort of law enforcement academy as soon as we move so I need to gain strength again! Jamie
