    Syrup is basically sugar. Not good.

    You need meat -- red meat like beef and also liver. Will you eat liver?

    Can you call your doctor's office to get the hemoglobin number from the blood draw?

    Foods that are a good source of iron include:

    * liver
    * lean red meats, including beef, pork, lamb
    * seafood, such as oysters, clams, tuna, salmon, and shrimp, etc.
    * beans, including kidney, lima, navy, black, pinto, soy beans, and lentils
    * iron fortified whole grains, including cereals, breads, rice, and pasta
    * greens, including collard greens, kale, mustard greens, spinach, and turnip greens

    Do you take iron once or twice a day? Without skipping? How big is the dose? (What is each iron pill worth?)

    So you're not even trying to help yourself. You're just playing at making yourself well again.

    12 is normal for women, so you're not anemic. Good.

    Lunch first -- something healthy and more than two potato chips -- and cut out the syrup. You're eating 'way too much of that.
