Weight loss is one of my big concerns. I don't tolerate dairy well plus it increases mucus...so I just ignore people who tell me to drink milk shakes. I have very little appetite, do best with breakfast, so eating is more a chore than a pleasure. Any suggestions would be welcomed.

@unicorn, Wow, that was a long list! Weight loss and malabsorption is typical for mac infected individuals. I don't think we have to look very far for the reason it is happening. Thank you for looking that up as there are other reasons too that people experience this.
