3 week check-in

Male 43years old 6'3" SW 428.6lbs CW 414lbs GW 275lbs Oral Med kit 2

Just about to finish week 3 and I'm down 14.5lbs. Initially I had some cramping and pretty urgent needs to go to the bathroom but not enough to worry about and only a few times a day. I'm currently taking 2 bupropion and a half Naltrexone in the morning then a half Naltrexone and a Metformin at night.

Overall my moods are improved, my desire to eat big meals is gone and I do not feel any real hunger until I'm about to actually eat. I get full very fast and will feel a bit sick if I eat more than a small portion or two. I used to be able to eat two large portions of dinner and go back for more if the kids didn't polish everything off. For breakfast I'm currently eating a pretty large portion of 3 eggs, veggies, sausage, and cheese in the morning and fasting until dinner where I would say I have a very normal sized portion of food.

I don't feel sluggish or foggy. My side effects seem limited to digestion and cramping which is just a little uncomfortable when I first take the meds or when I'm starting a new one. Feeling full off of a portion that would fill up a normal weight person if totally new to me. Even When I did low carb I had large portions of meat, fat and veggies, so I'm, hoping to make some lasting habits in relation to portion control.

Overall I'm very happy I decided to give it a try.
