I get leg cramps when I don't drink enough plain water - all day long. A friend told me to take 1 teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of water. Guaranteed to stop the cramps. Haven't tried it yet - been drinking water.

Hi Joey! :)

Our bodies require lots of water to do everyday functions including weight loss.
Unlike other things, it's very difficult to get too much of it.

If you stopped eating cheeses, you may have cut off your only calcium source.
If you eat it in moderation, it is good for you and will help prevent calcium deficiency.
And in moderation, won't hamper your weight loss.

Another option is taking a calcium supplement.
However, the calcium in cheese is readily absorbed into the body.
The same can't be said for all the supplements.
What you do today is what matters!

*Joey, that's great! You've lost over 18 pounds! I'm sorry you're stressed at work. Deep breaths.

*Prayed for your:
relationship with Jesus
success with your efforts at weight loss
job stress relief
relationships with people
sense of well-being
that you will be filled with the Lord's joy

It's good to hear from you, bigjoey.  I actually thought of you today as I drove west on I-76 on my way back to Denver from Nebraska.  Congratulations on your continued loss.  Watch out 300, here he comes!
