If I had HIV would I have lost weight by now

I have a good apetite. I haven't lost a pound. Today I have a taste for some BBQ. DO you lose your apetite for a long time with this or is it just during the Ars period. Also how long does Ars usally last? Mine only seem to last a few days.

Some of mine are now missing.

I think Teak has something to do with this. He thinks we are all crazy and is tired of our posts.

During my ARS/Mono I lost all my appetite and lost 13 lbs. I would only drink fluids all day.

Funny, I have craved BBQ and have gone to two BBQ restaurants this past week. My apptite is kind of back.

If someody has had HIV for 7 years would they have lost weight by now?

Cant be ARS, Big dummy got his little dummy sucked and stuck his fingers in a chic with condoms on his finger.  Dummy, go get a test and you will feel better.  I am starting to think you just like the attention.
