The Takeaway
If you’re underweight, nauseous, or struggling with digestion, know this: you don’t have to force yourself into the same routines as everyone else. Your body is unique, and the way you approach food should respect that.
My doctor’s advice taught me that:
Gentle hydration comes first.
Easy-to-digest foods are your friend.
Small, frequent portions beat one overwhelming meal.
Calories matter, even without fat.
Breakfast isn’t about “fitting in” — it’s about healing and fueling.
So, while my plate may look simple, it represents progress. And for anyone in a similar battle: your journey can start small too. Even a bite, even a sip — that’s still a victory.
