Of course this is due to the fact that I really didn't have an appetite and couldn't eat before 11am in the morning or after 9pm at night. There were a lot of awful mornings and nights in that time period where I would have given anything to just keep water down. But, ya know, its true what they say, you forget about it. I mean, a month ago I couldn't physically do the dishes or sometimes kiss my husband (unless he took a breath mint) haha, ...
