Guest guest Posted November 12, 1999 Report Share Posted November 12, 1999 Well, my sister Cathi went to an orthapedic surgeon yesterday to find out why her leg hurts so much. Found out she has arthritis and the knees of a 65 yr old (shes 48). She also has bone spurs under her knees. He has told her she must lose weight. Shes going to start Atkins today with me and my other sister. I have a question for everyone. She is on a steroid and the Dr. said she must take it with milk (once a day). Well, milk is pretty high carb and that doesnt leave much for the rest of the day. I suggested half milk, half 1/2 & 1/2. Any other suggestions out there? I think i'm going to get her signed up to this list tomorrow so this will help her in support and give her ideas. Anyway... my dad called me at work yesterday and asked if i had heard of Metabolife. I kinda chuckled.. (over weight runs in my family!). He said he ordered 5 bottles. One for me, for both my sis's and my brother and one for himself. He said he really wants to help all he can. They are very concern about my sis. Now i think its been mentioned many times.... but isnt this considered stacking? And i know about the controvery over it... i'm going to be very careful, and not over do it at all. BTW-- i've been riding my bike every night for 10 mins... know its not alot, but at least i'm gettin on it! -- Smiles, Mollie, Co-Moderator 177/161/135! ******* NEW NUMBER ********* Thanksgiving Goal--- 159!
