And then 6 weeks hit. Something changed at the beginning of this week. I was very limited in the foods I could eat. Saturday and Sunday I was in bed all day. We saw Matt’s parents on Sunday and I did my best to hide how tired I was. Exhaustion hit hard at the end of each work day. One day I had to leave early because I was no longer functioning. I went to bed early every night. When I felt hungry I had to eat instantly or I started to feel sick. Whatever I’m experiencing this week is manageable; I just need to keep something in my stomach. Water was unappealing and I made smoothies a lot. I decided a long time ago that when I felt good I would eat well but if I felt bad I would do whatever I had to do to survive. This week I also started eating lunch in my office instead of in the break room. I could barely handle my own food let alone everyone else’s. My palette changed drastically and I wasn’t proud of my food choices. Matt has been the best husband. He hasn’t complained about eating as a bachelor and he has made lunches and smoothies for me when I couldn’t stand to look at food.
