I ate at night. I wouuld wake up at 5 pm, cook dinner, eat, and go to work at 730. I would pack a lunch and snacks for overnight. I would eat when I came home in the morning before I went to sleep. I would flip back and forth beteeen eating at night when I worked to eating during the day when I was off.

Topic: RE: Colon Cancer

I never got colon cancer. I would think loosing weight would decrease your risk of cancer as obesity has been a factor shown to increase the likelihood of cancer. With all of that fat storage, it's basically a giant hormone storage tank in the fat cells.

I had gerd pre sleeve, a very mild case. Since my sleeve, I only get it if I eat bread, little debbies, or cake. I don't eat those and I don't get acid reflux. That's not true for everybody though.
