I’ve been trying to gain weight for years. And after my doctor looked me over for all kind of stomach stuff he actually just recommended talk therapy. I gained appetite and had less stomach pain after about 5 months but didn’t really “realize I was changing until month 8. Looking back at old photos I am surprised now to see the change. A year ago I was 115 now 135.

I used to really struggle with breakfast but I found PBJ sandwiches as a hack to get the calories. It’s hard to find foods that don’t make me feel full too fast.

Takeaway- the therapy has been really powerful. I told her some big events in my life and she made these “targets” for us to talk through. I didn’t realize how much these targets were dragging me down.
