My first date was 49 days away - I thought it'd never get here but then when it did I was in a state of panic... was almost relieved it got cancelled but the feelings of being pissed off sorta shadowed that LOL!! Now I'm 3 days away and the panic is setting in but I am SO READY!!! Maybe panic isn't the right word - more like anxious - there's no doubt that I'm doing the RIGHT thing :-)
We'll have to get together in a few weeks... do you have a gym membership yet? My niece works at Golds and said I should check it out I fear they're all muscleheads! I go to the Planet Fitness in Franklin (sometimes Milford and Walpole) - if you ever want to check it out I can bring you as my guest... nothing intense, we could just walk.
How are you doing since your surgery?
lynn can u reemailme the info u had on mine. please.
Vitalady's hubby isn't well so she has been backed up on getting back to people. Did you get my email on Jan 2 reviewing your labs and giving links to some of the things that may help you? If not here is a copy
OK - Low protein and albumin mean that you need to up your protein intake - if you're getting 60 grams you need to up it to 80 grams. If your not getting 60 then go up to 60 as a start.
Low Ferritin (its your iron stores) means you need to add in some iron - Vitalady recommends 300 mg of iron per day. http://www.vitalady.com/cgi-bin/commerce.cgi?preadd=action&k ey=1326X400http://www.vitalady.com/cgi-bin/commerce.cgi?prea dd=action&key=1326X400
B12 - yup, this needs to come way up. 1000 micrograms per day sublingual

All of the other Bs are very low also so a complete B complex & folic acid will help

D3 - Dry - Vitalady recommends 20000 iu per day (yours is low so this should be good for you)

A, Mag, and Zinc seem very good.
As I am not a doctor or nutritionist you may want to run this info by one but with RNY these should be fine - the other person to check with would be Andrea U on the main board - http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/aullberg/
Good luck and my thoughts are with Ethan and his family
