A contradiction in weight management


Peg's been dropping abdominal weight, and her fluid bulk is way down.  No more 8-month-pregnant belly. She no longer has to hold her stomach as she walks around and can comfortably lie on her back.

Downside is she's also dropping weight everywhere else. Trying to compensate with Ensure, protein-rich foods, anything she's interested in given her diminished appetite.  Down to 121 pounds from her normal weight of 135-140.  Bony little arms, same sweet face. We don't want her to drop below where she is now... any tips n' tricks, please send our way.

Our girl needs to bulk up, and just to complicate matters... she's no longer that interested in chocolate.

There's a challenge for yah.

A big thanks for all of your prayers, visits, food, Zoë play dates, music CDs, helping around the house, you name it.  We're amazed and overwhelmed at the cornucopia of love and goodwill.

I've got three words for you:
Green bean soup

It's full of cream, butter, fresh green beans and dill. Does it sound gross? It's really good. I promise. Say the word and I"ll bring some by....
