04/03/03 Gwen, You are doing a great job! Keep on keepin' on. I am now four months down and feeling great. I have lost 80 lbs at 194 lbs today and losing. I too am trying to get as much water down as possible but it gets hard. I have a large container on my night stand and make myself sip all during the night. What kind of vitamins are you taking? Are you eating any carbs yet? I am gradually introducing them back into my diet. I want to exercise but I find it really hard to get motivated to do so. Each week I say today I will walk and well!!!! But I know I will get there. I had not taken any measurements of myself but did the other day and will track my inches as well. Well, it's all good for us now and I pray for your continued success. Veronica

^j^ Just an angel flying in for a round before she herself will be on the losing side. Eventhough we've been in contact almost every day by phone, I want you to know how proud I am of you in your journey. The prayers that were lifted for you continue to be lifted. The love that I have for you as my sister will never change and hasn't for the last 21 years that we have been friends (Boy you are getting old). Still, if Mom would have had another child, I can only wish that he/she and I would have been there for each other as we have through the years. Our families are intertwined and remain that way. This is the beginning of another new chapter in our lives. (You know we really need to get that book going) Love Ya ^j^

Hi Gwendolyn: Have you tried the dulcolax rectal suppositories and if that doesn't work try a fleets enema. I hope one of those works. Take Care Natalie B.

Hi Gwendolyn. I read your post regarding water and protein. The only thing I can say is, just keep the water by you and keep sipping ALL DAY! You may have noticed that what you are asking is common amongst everyone. I never got the full amount of protein in the beginning. You just need to supplement with protein shakes and do your best. May I suggest, Whey Delicious Protein - you have to buy it over the internet of buy phone but it is the only one that I could take. It is simply fabulous! You get a recipe book with it so there is possibilities beyond what you think! 1-888-4aboost is the Phone #. Dont worry, you will do fine. Keep in touch with your doctor if you have concerns and remember that everyone's experience varies, as your will! Best wishes and congrats on joining us on the other side! Deanna
