Steve,

I can relate to Alyse's post, I'm still down about 20 lbs. (a good thing in my case, I'm now 178 lbs.), and although I eat, and enjoy some foods, I'm not eating like I was before transplant... Again a good thing I think... Last two weeks I've been trying to put back on 5 lbs. that slowly came off over the past few months, I attribute the weight loss to being more active, and the beautiful weather... I'm even playing softball for my churches co-ed fun league (I'm pitching - modified arc)...

At 79 days, I wasn't really growing a beard, or hair yet either...

I'm still also making daily shakes, although I use a banana, vanilla ice cream, and chocolate milk... It's a good way to take in some calories and protein...

Good luck to everyone, and may God Bless!!!
David
