Sorry for the “teaser” subject line!

If you want to lose weight; get the flu! I came down with the flu on 12/23, fever, chills and sore muscles.

Temp spiked at 102.7 but I am feeling much better. I have lost about 6 lbs over the last 2 days.

Before you scold me I have kept up my fluids drinking 2-32oz G2 Gatorades and several hot teas and a Propel or two each day (my wife helps reminding me to hydrate!). I just have not been hungry. Of course I had my 3^rd fill on 12/17 for a total of 8cc in a 14 cc band. I have lost 50 lbs! Wooo Hooo!

I got the flu too! It has been terrible, but I've still been hungry. I have had to feed my family though, maybe that's part of it and I also have not had a fill yet. I'm usually a chronic weigher (like 4-5 times a day) but I haven't been on the scale for 2 days!

I won't scold you, I had the stomach flu and had the same drop in pounds. I gained half back with in the week. However, it was a little quicky drop.
