Guest guest Posted July 17, 2002 Report Share Posted July 17, 2002 Well I've been making poor Vitalady listen to me moan, and it seems only fair to make everyone suffer equally! My 2 year labs were a bit bothersome to me. One of the issues is my protein level, which is still normal, but has been steadily declining since surgery, from a beginning of 6.9 to its current level of 6.1. What were your protein levels at your last bloodwork? This latest rash of emails about protein shakes could not have come at a better time for me. I like the shakes, but I don't wanna give up any food to drink more shakes! I have been ingesting in excess of 120 gms of protein a day, but it seems pretty apparent that food protein may not doing the job. So, I am going to have to buckle down and add another shake or two a day. It looks like the evening snack may have to go :< I remember praying to God 5 years ago, that if he/she would just help me get the weight off, I would do whatever it took to keep it off and stay healthy. I guess God and my surgeon did their part, and now I've gotta put my money where my mouth is. Kate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
