I'm glad you had a good weekend. Good job today!

Still working on getting in 300 mg of iron daily. Almost there. 

Monday bites:
Decaf protein coffee
Turkey bacon
Decaf protein coffee
Chef salad w/ butter lettuce, carrots, cheese, chicken, hard boiled egg, oil/vinegar dressing
Few chips
Small scoop of tuna
Decaf protein coffee
1/4 of an apple sliced w/ caramel
T-bone steak
Popcorn
Decaf protein coffee
1/2 Twix bar
Vites: all in
Fluids: 90 oz.

Hang in there. I took that much iron for a few years until all the labs were optimal and now they seem they stick pretty well. Just need to figure out how much is enough now. Maybe only 1 Proferrin a day. Wouldn't that be great?
