I went to see my surgeon today about the results of my lab work that I posted about the other day. It turns out that I am protein deficeint and just a tad anemic. I need to up my protein to 80 grams per day and he wants me to add B-Complex and Iron to my daily supplements. I just have to clear them with my OB. I am sure that she will be fine with it. I actually bought a B-Complex at Costco this afternoon when I refilled my B12 prescription. He thinks that my exhaustion is coming more from the protein deficeincy than the anemia. He was confident that if I upped my protein intake that I would feel a lot better. So here is toasting a protein shake I guess I will go back to my morning coffee protein latte. I also found Hansen's Diet Soda made with Splenda. I was excited to find it because I had read about making a rootbeer float and creamsicle with the sodas and vanilla protein powder. Well, that is it for now! God Bless! Jen
