And it's totally normal that you feel differently the next day. Your body is still getting used to you eating and keeping food down.Β And your body and your mind are connected. Do you think this might be why you are feeling like this today? I can remember that you've found some of the meditation videos helpful in the past to calm your mind. Have you tried any of those today?Β I forgot about those videos, I will go find the links blondie sent :)! Thank you for reminding me :)! I think what you said is correct, I'm going to try and eat somethingΒ 1 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think ice cream is a good shout because you are trying to get your body used to eating food again and ice cream goes down really easily (physically speaking).Β And it's great that you are finding a way not to listen to that bit of you that is telling you not to eat. Is there anything in particular that is helping you not to listen?Β 1 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
