Topic: RE: I Have Fallen Off the Wagon, Drug it Threw the Mud, Set it on Fire, and Watched it Burn

I have also fallen off the wagon and have been so sad. I've lost about 60 pounds since my sleeve two years ago but haven't been able to get down I am looking for support and to get back on track

Topic: RE: Trouble digesting meats

Thank you for that thought. When things return to normal, I will likely do a follow up with my doctor. An allergy to meats will be sad for me.

You've already consulted a doctor, but here's something they might not have thought about: You could have developed an allergy to meat. One possible cause of this is a tick bite (https://acaai.org/allergies/types/food-allergies/types-food- allergy/meat-allergy). You can get a tick bite without knowing it. Early on, the only reaction might be digestive discomfort, but be on the lookout for hives or respiratory symptoms.

White Dove, I myself can rarely eat meat that is reheated in the microwave unless it's done at a low temp and is actually reheated and not cooked again, so I am understanding how something zapped in there could be too dry for her to eat, it makes sense.

It is hard for a while when you can only eat a few bites. I felt bad for the person who prepared it. I also can almost never eat meat that has been reheated in the microwave. If I take something home, I often eat it cold. Tell you daughter to be careful about heating food in the microwave because it can make it too dry and tough for us to handle.

Everyone I ever served it to was impressed. Many people have asked for my secret. When I tell them they often think they can save money by using a less expensive mix and then are disappointed with the taste. The McCormick Au Jus is about $1.80 and you can buy cheaper ones for about $1. It is well worth the extra 80 cents.

I have to say, I've never tried McCormick Au Jus mix, so I will now! I have two great roasts I need to prepare. Thanks!
