Six Months and all is well

Just had my 6 month checkup. Here are the facts: I have lost 75% of my excess weight and despite what people keep saying to me...I am fine to keep going. My BMI is 28.1. I am low on Vitamin A and my protein is down. I do need to increase my physical activity as that will only help to enforce and maintain the weight loss efforts. I now okay to start taking Calcium supplements as long as I stay above the 48 oz of water daily.

Here is my question: does anyone else have to take supplements for Vitamin A? The only thing I can seem to find are the softgels and I am not sure if I am able to take those. Aren't they kind of big?

For the protein, I am trying to find a local Walgreens that carries "Beneprotein". Anyone know of a local store or do I have to go online to get it?

That's all folks.

You are doing fabulous!!!  I'm so happy for you and really enjoy seeing the progress at coffee!!!

I'm not low in A, so I can't help you out with that. Keep up the good work!!!

Hi Ramona, Yes you looked absolutely fantastic on Saturday.                               "CONGRATULATIONS"!!! I had Walgreen's in Eagan special order it for me; and I thought they had priced it pretty high. So the next time I ordered online.  By the time I figured shipping into the price, they  came out pretty close to one another. Hugs, Granny Eileen.

Congrats on your 6 month check up. Sounds like you are doing great!!  Good for you. Hugs, connie d

Congratulations on your weight loss - you look marvelous!!  I am jealous - it took me a year to get my BMI down to 28 and it still isn't as low as yours. 

Sorry I can't help with the Vitamin A - I am doing okay with that.  Are you just now taking calcium sups? 

Hey Ramona!! Congratulations!  You're doing so great!! Hugs, Megan

Just wanted to congratulate you on your six month check up --- when you walked in last Saturday, SEVERAL of us said "Holy Crap" she looks good!!!!  You're getting so tiny!!!! XXOO

Thank you so much!

I'm with Barb, when I saw you on Saturday I thought someone new had joined our group - your body is shrinking, your hair color changed...Does hubby even recognize you anymore???  Maybe he's fantasizing that he's with a new woman because he doesn't recognize you!!!  LOL You're looking great Ramona!  Sorry to hear that you're low on some things - but better to find out now than when it's a problem. See ya at coffee on Saturday in Hopkins???

Thanks Tracy. I will have to ask Jerry about the fantasizing part. I haven't noticed any romantic overtures in that direction. Maybe its because of the changes. As for the hair color...beats the grey. No, I don't go to coffee in Hopkins.
