It will hurt like no one's business, but my daughter, whose first nursing job was caring for patients with joint replacements, says that's the only way to recover.Marjiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14950085029835332900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-511932079074193335.post-41194608729087615462020-01-11T07:50:24.625-05:002020-01-11T07:50:24.625-05:00Your will power is totally impressive. Congratulat...Your will power is totally impressive. Congratulations Larry. I'm all about the low carb theory ... but its so hard, since we love pasta and potatoes around here. :) Man, for me waiting until mid morning to eat would be so hard. I'm hungry early! Keep us updated about that surgery and the confirmed date. We'll be thinking about you!Lea Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18300494324578850021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-511932079074193335.post-23208155914991925062020-01-09T18:25:43.119-05:002020-01-09T18:25:43.119-05:00Way to go..........................👍😃🙌Way to go..........................👍😃🙌HRB..https://www.blogger.com/profile/08487419739131600251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-511932079074193335.post-33368788370475585882020-01-09T15:03:56.241-05:002020-01-09T15:03:56.241-05:00Wishing you a safe and speedy recovery, thank good...Wishing you a safe and speedy recovery, thank goodness these newer methods will have you up in no times.

I also just read a few articles that say having 2 teaspoons of vinegar (any kind but usually apple cider) right before eating each meal, can really help boost your metabolism too! <br /><br />You look great & I'm sure it will be wonderful to get that darn hip replaced!Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05776870904791768530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-511932079074193335.post-89087102542099122892020-01-09T11:12:03.980-05:002020-01-09T11:12:03.980-05:00Larry, Limiting the hours for eating...partial day...Larry, Limiting the hours for eating...partial day fasting is something that Laurie and her sisters did successfully about a year ago. Your stomach gets used to less incoming food and after a relatively short time, you feel 'full' with less food. The low carb regime is about the only diet that has ever worked for me. The down side of losing weight, which is minor in comparison to the health benefits of downsizing, is indeed the 'aging' which suddenly appears! I developed a nice turkey wattle and those darn wrinkles too. I'm up about 14 lbs. over my low of about a year ago so I'm trying to knock it off but I'm not as motivated as the pain encourages you to be... I'm sure that you'll make your goal! Keep up the good work.
