I'm feeling good. I appear to be a slow loser so I am disappointed in my progress but I am just getting into the swing of getting enough Protein so I am hoping it will start picking up soon. I still have not mastered eating slowly. But I've got the fluids thing down pat. And I just got a delivery of Gatorade Zero with protein today so I am hoping that will be a tasty addition to my daily intake.

Don’t worry about the weight, it’ll happen. And the slow eating will be second nature after a while. The fluids thing is very important - sounds like you are off to a fantastic start!
