Hello,
I am four months out now and have lost 51.5 lbs. My BMI is 32.9. I am 5'9" and weigh 223 lbs. I can eat anything-including sweets unfortunately. Steak is still difficult. I am finding myself to be progressively more lactose intolerant. My clothes fit differently, but I still see myself as nearly the same size. I am pleased with my results thus far, even though I am a slow loser. I am eating about 900-1100 calories per day on average. I drink at least 60-70 oz. of water per day. Lately my protein intake has only been about 50. I need to bump that up a little. I havent lost any significant amount of hair and my nails are strong.
