WOW, Josh. Christine really hit on just about anything that you can expect. I'm so glad you found this Forum. Right now is the time to eat every and anything you desire and not worry about calories. I wasn't lucky enough to have found the Forum when I was at your stage in the game mad, and had no one to tell me about the importance of nutrition and hydration, so I lost a bunch of weight and wasn't big to begin with. Again, you're ready to go, and come back often to let us know how things are going and seek help, if necessary.
Your Alabama Buddy, Julieann
