The actual proceedure is being done today. This past week they were boosting his bone marrow production with medication. Im going down to the hospital after work today and looking after him for the night and taking him home tomorrow. Im so proud of him for donating!!! He has been in a lot of pain and will be in more tonight so please still keep him in your thoughts. Thanks.

Great job!!


I don't know how either but did you curb your cheese some like we suggested in another thread?


Or maybe the fact that you aren't excercising right now so you're not currently adding lean muscle mass to replace the fat you are burning?


Your family and especially DH will remain in my prayers.

Yeah I only have a bit of low fat cottage cheese now so I think that was it or at least I hope I am not already losing muscle!!!

As long as you are getting enough lean protein you should be sustaining your muscle, I was just saying that you're not building muscle right now and what you were losing could have been being offset but the muscle you were gaining.

Way to go Stacy! I know plateaus can be such pain (I am currently in one myself), so breaking through one practically floors you. Take care!
