It's been quite a while since I have posted. But, I have always found that the people here on this board always have the greatest advice. SO, this brings me to my latest book purchase. Years ago, a friend of mine suddenly, ( and I mean SUDDENLY ) got really -really skinny. When I asked her how she lost so much weight and so quickly ( I usually do not ask these questions, as sometimes weight loss can be a very personal venue to ask quesitons on.)
Anyway, she told me that she had purchased the book "Eating for your Type"
Recently I remembered this book so I ventured over to the local Barnes and Noble and got it. But, I have one problem. I have never given birth OR given blood, and believe it or not , I have no idea what my blood type is. Though the Eat Clean Diet book is still my 'bible' as far as eating , I also think it would be intertsting what this book has to say about my blood type and the foods that I should be eating vs. avoiding. I figured, if it worked for my friend ( she never worked out by the way ) then think of what it would do for me/us being we work out with Cathe.
My first question: How IN THE WORLD can I get my blood type ? I have been jumping through HOOPS to get it. I called my hospital 4 times , they will not call me back. I've been in to see my Dr. twice ( once for a physical, another for Cholesterol check ) and they always tell me to give blood or call the hospital. UGH ! I've called a clinic that I actually had blood work done and the only thing they are allowed to give me is weather or not it's positive or negative.
I know there are nurses out there who post here. Any adivice on how I can get my 'top secret FBI Blood type information' ? ( note the sarcasm ) without going through the trouble of actually giving blood ?
Also, has anyone else read and followed this book and what did you think ? Good results. Bad. I have been told that Dr.s would use these diets per patients blood types before heading into surgery.
Long post, I know, but I figured someone out there would have some good advice.
Thank you much !
