I used to love food. Almost any food, except really spicy stuff. I loved cooking and baking. I loved savoring every morsel that went into my mouth and being a slow eater, this made it even better.

Since I’ve been on these drugs, it’s been getting harder and harder to enjoy food. My taste buds are shot and finding something that tastes better than cardboard isn’t easy. I eat a full meal at dinner so I don’t get nauseous from the drugs. Ok, so it may not be a proper meal, but enough to fill me up.

For a while now I haven’t been eating properly. I find something that remotely tastes as it should and I’ll eat it for days. Frozen Italian meatballs, KFC, steamed potatoes and carrots, cherry turnovers.

At this point, I’m more concerned with getting food into me than I am about nutrition and my weight.
