@puprluvr That is good news I was up to 111 but got a bad cold with coughing and lost three pounds eating the same amount. next week have to get a D& C then after that have to deal with large kidney stone though I drink 92 ounces of water per day and eat low oxalate and add calcium citrate powder at every meal. If I die at one of these procedures it will be a mistake as I don't want to die -do everything every day to follow the diet and exercise etc, It's very hard -I'm so lucky to hav e a loving partner who went on a ten day trip called me every day sometimes 2 or three times and I dealt with everything that came up and boy did it come up, broken heater in my apartment at 4am, broken computer, leak in the car, so many appts to prepare for the operation and I did it. But am very scared. Do breathing exercises and Nerva program for IBS. Hope to be talking to everyone after Tuesday!
