Hi Cheri

I totally empathize with you on the fruit. Unfortunately it is my enemy

too. I was raised on very healthy food, and there was always fruit around.

I can sometimes get away with one piece of fruit a day, but sometimes I

can't even handle that.

I have never been crazy about eating in the morning. I think having a shake

in the morning instead of food is perfectly fine. I still struggle with even

having a shake in the morning. I have been up for about 3 hours and still

haven't had a shake.

How much protein are you doing a day? What kind of surgery did you have?

What about vitamins?

As far as keeping up with postings, the easiest way is to receive individual

E-mails. That way, you know you aren't missing anything, and they are much

easier to read that way.
