When you get frustrated at twinges and the tedium of a nibble/sip regime, remember these things: That gastritis/GERD you had lasted 4 weeks. This is going to be a bigger recovery than that, its a bigger 'injury.' I called paramedics over that, it was painful. I couldn't sleep on anything but my back then, too. It sucked. So does this, but this I chose and WILL recover from in time. It's a preferred option with benefits.
Also, remember this:
Remember how scary this was???? Heart palpitations and being hooked up for 24 hours to all these wires and stuff? This was serious shit, Kell. This was because you weighed 130kg. This was where you were headed. Remember this.
Be realistic and remind yourself to be patient for 3 months at least. You will get there, yeah it sucks but it will get better. Remember too, that this is a good recovery. Some wound troubles and trouble learning to eat are pretty good problems in the grand scheme of things. It could be so much worse. You're lucky. Appreciate that.
You're doing this for you. It'll be so worth it. Love yourself, you are worth it.
Me. xx
