Hey doll, are you taking all your vitamins? Fluids? And perhaps you need to up that protein, I'd really like to see it 80 and above. Don't let yourself get run down! hugs! yes, those glasses of wine are nice treats! Hope you feel better!

Hi~ I take multi-vit, B12 (2500mcg) 2 stool softners, prozac & effexor every day along with 10 benefiber chewables, oh and calcium chews. Fluids usually run between 56 & 76 every day. I'm trying not to get too run down.  Making sure to drink more especially days I ride and clean stalls (today was one of those days).  Horse show on Saturday so I'm getting ready.

huum, you might want to revisit your vitamin regime and get on a better program. You may be low on iron and other things. Vitalady at vitalady.com has a vitamin plan that I use. If you want a copy let me know. bariatriceating.com has good vitamins, as does buildingblocks.com. Let me know!

What do you suggest for a better plan?  Vitalady?  Could you send me a copy of what you use?  Thank you so much, Stephanie

sure, its the proximal plan from michelle at vitalady. I'll send it to you now!

GOOD FOR YOU...I'll definitely pray for you.

Oh, I get it...Well, we are connected to our better halves...And what effects them, effects us. I keep wishing my dh would quit smoking but I know I'll be in hell for a few months when and if he ever does...He's been smoking 50 years...
