➸ I hope I can buy chewing gum with my EBT card.

Because it’s becoming seriously, seriously important medically. The steroids have raised my appetite to the point that if I don’t chew gum, I try to eat things. And my stomach is too paralyzed to let me eat things without them spilling over into my lungs and trying to kill me. So gum is rapidly…

Are you sure 1200 calories is still enough food now that you’re able to be active? Worried that maybe you’re hungry because you need food.

I tried raising the amount of food I got per day, and all it resulted in was nausea. If there’s problems, I can always try raising it again, though.

You know your body best and I am not trying to tell you what to do.

I’m just a bit alarmed because you posted about worrying about weight, you’re consuming very few calories, and you’re hungry.

Not being currently able to eat more than that doesn’t necessarily mean 1200 calories is enough. I just worry that maybe it’s a medical problem you’re having trouble noticing as one because if you eat more you’ll gan weight.

I’m not you though, and just because I’m seeing red flags doesn’t mean I’m right.

Ohh okay. The problem is that the 1200 calories is basically what you get if I eat 21 hours a day at the speed that’s the best rate for me. I can try and speed it up to see if that helps me any though.
