Oh okay. Maybe I'll get an answer with the next test. Thank you!

How do they make the diagnosis? I've been fighting this for upwards of 6 months now. The doctor told me I had to lower my iron by May, or else. She didn't expand on the "or else".

Iron Overload? That sounds like it sucks. I will look into that, thank you! :)

Awesome. Thanks! I'll check with the doc to see if I can take calcium supplemnts. I had kidney stones a year ago from too much soda. (I gave that up, thank goodness.)

Like cast iron? I think I need to check my non stick pans. :)

I don't eat a lot of red meat either. I quit my supplements 3 months ago, after the first high iron result.

The diet she gave is too vague for me. All she said was no red meat, or vegetables with a lot of iron. I don't eat a lot of red meat to begin with. I don't mind being on the diet, I just need more information. Online searching for iron content is ridiculous. I searched eggs recently and got at least 3 different websites…

Hi! I'm struggling to get back into the groove again myself. You can add me if you want.

My friends are all inactive except 2. I'm in need of more motivation.

Hi! You can do it!

Hi! I've had an account for awhile, but never really used it. I need to get back to it, especially now. You can add me, if you want. I'm always happy to chat. :)

Welcome to the party!!! :flowerforyou:

I can make it work... I'm used to crazy hair!

I just cut mine. It was down to my butt. Fair warning, it's naturally curly. Like poodle who stuck a fork in an electric outlet curly... :laugh: :ohwell:

I wish my hair was thicker... Mine is longish and very thin. Maybe we should trade? :smile:

Army wife here... Add me if you want.

There are some foods that we(my family) consider "tribal", but they never have a name. We are what people call Native American, and we eat a lot with the tribe. But that is us, everywhere else? Who knows?

Oh thank you! I thought I was the only one who avoids McDonalds. I can't stand the stuff. I cook three meals a day, at home. Everyday. And F.Y.I. to all the Brits, not every American likes "hot dogs". If I eat something like that, it's a brat from the Germany "economy".

I second that!!!

I've got you beat. I'm 24 in a couple months and people are always telling me I look 12. It's highly annoying...

^^ DITTO

Me too. Except mine turned to Bronchitis... again.

YES!!! These!!!

I do. Pre-pregnancy clothes. All of them. I think my main issue is my "muffin top". Here's to working towards a goal!!!

Hahahaha!!!:love: :flowerforyou:

H.P. Lovecraft is amazing!!! I just finished The Call of Cthulhu And Other Weird Stories. Next for me is Jules Verne... Whichever one comes first on my Kindle.

You beat me to it. Both my mother and I are sensitive to the mineral tastes in different waters, especially town and city waters. We add lemons to our perspective waters to cover up that nasty acidic taste. Get creative...

I'm orignally from Okie Land too. BRAUMS!!!! The best ice cream I've ever had. Here in Germany, there are way too many to list, like bratwurst and such.

Agree. My husband is 15 years old than I am. We've been married 3 years with a 2 year old. It's working fine for us. We compliment each other. And before anyone asks my parents are fine with it.
