Re: Re; gelatin ad nauseam

Hi Mandy, before I comment, I want to notice you've lost 7# since I last

saw!!!! That is so wonderful. It jumped out at me. That's my inspiration

for when I get closer to goal. Good for you!

I do apologize if the subject of gelatin seemed not appropriate to some at

this site, but I really see no difference in discussing that, or vitamins

(which kind, chewable, etc. etc. etc), or the constant finds, likes &

dislikes of protein shakes, and how to prepare them. At this point I have

no interest in protein shakes as it isn't recommended by my nutritionist,

but I wholeheartedly know it's of interest to others. I generally skip over

those, as I haven't needed them, and have no input to help anyone.

I do want to thank Mandy for the interest and time put into shedding some

light on a subject I knew little about. Isn't that part of the purpose of

this site? To support, help, learn, etc.

and yet when someone is asked to discuss the bennifits of .....

Gelatin.....

and how it can dirrectly enhance our personal recovery from the damage

that

obesity has placed on our joints .... you are what?? .... bored,

frustrated ...

dont feel personally motivated to read the postsand are therefore inclined

to

ask me to send them directly to Joan and others that have asked me for the

information so that the the group..... wont be ... bothered with the posts

DONT READ THE POSTS .. ITS THAT SIMPLE!! ...

but wait, lori, ... it can be even more simple than that. I wont

publically post again so that you alone can avoid being inconvinced by

what I have

chosen to offer up to you, and the group.
