    I used to be dreadfully underweight before my Crohn’s was under control. I tried to squeeze in calories wherever I could. Most of the time, I had meal replacement shakes with my meals. Then, I found meds that worked for me and my eating habits backfired. Every now and then, I may slip back to my old ways by following out a loaf of bread and filling it with a container of Nutella and eating the entire thing in one sitting. Hence why I am now 246lbs.

      That sounds like it was a lot to deal with I’m really sorry I had to go through that.

      I definitely have some of the same issues food used to be pretty scarce because I grew up fairly poor and now that I’m doing well for myself it is sometimes difficult to remind myself that I don’t need to eat like this is my last meal.
