 ok thanks for the reply but gotta get a hold of things before back in LaneBryant or the hospital

It is hard and always will be.  The problem is when we slip the consequences come on slowly allowing us to sink into bad habits that are hard to shake. 

Choose your meals and snacks to maximize iron and protein as you work at raising your iron stores.  And, of course, sip all your waking hours except for the buffer time around meals. 

I've been struggling with inappropriate snacking myself so I understand how it can be.  Putting it out there holds you accountable and serves as a reminder to the rest of us.  It takes very little to hit the skids. 

 so very well said thank u soooo much I needed that wish me luck first iron iNfusion fri not too happy aboit it at all
