Medusa,
     Is this a typo 2 1/4 inch wrist circumference?  I am small framed
and
my wrist is 6 1/2 inches. By the way I am 5'5" &3/4 and weigh 150
exactly. I
think my ideal weight would be 133. 120 sounds a little too low.
Though I
did weigh 117 in my early 20s (now 42), I probably didn't have enough
muscle
back then. I am now at the low end of my ideal lean body mass 107. If
I were
120 now I would not have enough body fat for a female. I like having
hormones and periods and all - helps prevent osteoporosis.
     By the way all, I had a colonoscopy today and my crohn's is in
total
remission. The Dr. said that he has never seen such complete healing
before.
Then he said "looks like the asacol is working", but I know better.
It's
definately the diet. I'm still having problems with pain in the illeum
from
an adhesion though. Anyone know how to get rid of adhesions without
surgery?
