Progress Report 5 Months After <strong>My</strong> Tumor is<br />
Discovered<br />

There is not much new to talk about. I have lost more weight, down to 163 1/2 today. This<br />
is about 15 pounds since May. I still have little appetite and although my taste buds are<br />
returning, most foods have some taste, but not to my liking. Boost plus, chocolate tastes<br />
good. Most other foods are not intolerable but not good.<br />
