Got rid of the COVID 15 and now down to [View all]

a BMI of 24. Lost 27 pounds in 3 or 4 months.

I couldn't get my hunger under control until I broke down and went Keto. That did get it under control and now eating a better diet. No more bacon, I wasn't a pork eater, and sugar, along with wheat products. Didn't have to give up potatoes as I didn't eat them before.

Eating less protein, I'm now drinking 2 Protein drinks/day. Yum, chocolate and peanut butter flavor. Few calories and very low carb with lots of fiber. Now more of a calorie counter. Also back to fish and chicken and more veggies.

Still jog 3 or 4 times a week. Just longer distance and faster than before.
