Eating after the procedure follows healthy eating recommendations, is versatile and contains protein-rich products, the entrepreneur says in his update.

Kuhta cites as an example the fact that he feels less and less like french fries, for example. However, the entrepreneur has noticed that his weight is stuck in place.
– This is going to be a bit performance-oriented. There is great sadness when the weight does not fall off, although it should not be the main thing. I have to check a little, whether I’m drinking too many calories. I mainly drink aloe vera and coconut water. Just water, says Kuhta.
– I have to admit that sometimes I am so full of this phase of weight loss and life change. Couldn’t a person just act rationally and decide that now I live healthily and everything would go smoothly? I need a vacation from myself, he confesses in his later story sections.
