Re: Up date at almost 5 months

[Guest guest]

Hello all,

I will be five months on the 11th of this month. My weight has gone from 305 with a BMI of 53 to 186 with a BMI of 33. I have not had any problems with food I eat whatever I want, just remembering protein first. I can even eat sweets I eat candy all the time with no adverse results. The amount of food that I eat has reduced but I do eat more times a day and it takes me longer to eat a for example yesterday's day menu was: Breakfast: Grilled Cheese made with Extra cheese

Tea

Fruit Punch

Lunch: Beef Patty

Water Myoplex (11oz)

Snacks: Shish Kabob

Bowl of Salad

Few bites of a beef frank

Dinner: Large Slice of a Very Meaty and cheesy Lasagna Fruit Punch

The only problem that I really have is with the bathroom it smells worst and I go more but it is usually all with in an hour or so time. The real problem is that after I go to the bathroom I usually am in pain from the hemorrhoids I have developed. But over all I guess for a over hundred pound weight loss in Five months it is well worth it.
