Eating

Amy, I lost 45 pounds but I had gained weight before I went in. I couldn't even talk about food. Every thing tasted bad, I was throwing up everything. They put me on a steroid that was for your intestinal track, it helped a lot and antivan really helps a lot. it would settle my stomach enough to eat a yogart or take some meds. My husband made me eat, I ate a few bites here and there but it took a good 6 weeks. Hope this helps
