Topic: RE: Shrink in/around Phoenix

I know this is kind of old but I wanted to share anyway :)

 When I went to my surgeon required behavior modification therapy I was referred to Dr. Abby Garcia in Scottsdale.  She is WONDERFUL!!  I grew up with a negative impression of "shrinks" and was very unwilling to open up to her, but she made me feel so comfortable.  She never made me feel rushed, judged, or like she was dragging info from me.  I love her!  If I had the money I'd go to her still.  You can Google her and you'll find her number.  A lot of the time she answeres the phone herself, or calls you back herself.  She doesn't have a big staff, only like 1 person I think.  She's very personal with her patients.

Topic: RE: NOT LOSING
 Hi Linda! It is important to make sure the meals you are getting have all the nutrition you need, not just taking your vitamins. I have been using a product for over a month now and it has worked wonders. Please let me know if you would like more information. You can contact me at [email protected]. I can provide a website that will show you information, there is a health challenge involved to help you stay on track as well! talk to you soon.

Topic: RE: What are the best summer protein choices ?
In addition to salads which don't offer any protein, I'll get deli turkey, ham, chicken with as low fat as possible.  I'll also get a cantaloupe or strawberries and other fruit.  I tend to take a few pieces of deli meat and roll them up and serve them with the fruit and add some cottage cheese.  I'll also do iced protein shakes to make sure I get all my protein in when I don't really feel like eating a full meal.

I have been buying ready pac salads from Costco.  They come in a 2 pack with everything you need, dressing, chicken, cheese, even a fork!  Havent been cooking much lately myself WAY too hot! 

I do have a question for you though, I noticed on your signature that you had your RNY revised.  Just curious what happened, I have been an extremely slow loser and its driving me crazy and dr office is no help.  PM if you dont want to post.  TY!
