First follow-up
Back for my first visit with Dr. Gatza, The official tally is in: The last 3 days I have lost 6lbs. on the Total Shake System. Not bad for being stuck with not losing any weight for so long...
As I have said before, I was told to get some X-Rays done on my spine, to see what is going on with the "Ouch Man". As it turns out I have some unexpected twists and turns... I was sent to the table, and shortly loud crackling was the order of the day.
The diarrhea is getting corrected with a tablet and the lowered daily dose of the Cal-Mag tea and from my explanation on what is going on, I have received some enzymes to help me digest the food and relieve the heartburn.
The chicken feast was great on the 4th day and I look forward to more. I can see that eating only chicken and rice for the next 3 weeks will take some creativity on my part, but I love chicken, I like to cook, and better yet, I actually know how... You don't get to be this big, without some knowledge on the subject :-)
I'm planning on a variety of chicken meals within the limits of spices and cooking methods, like the ginger chicken stew, that I will dream up soon to try. Let me see, what else: I can make barbecued chicken without the barbecue sauce but with rice, grilled pepper chicken with parsley rice, grilled oregano chicken with rice, broiled lemon chicken on rice and lets not talk about all the fish I can make as well. Yumm...
Right now, I'm just happy about my initial weight loss and that I have gotten completely used to the shake in a short order. Luckily it was not very hard for me, being one who likes this type of taste and texture that the shake offers.
The future looks a little brighter.
