In reactive hypoglycemia, due to lack of eating regularly, the body convinces itself that it is starving and stores everything as fat. As I work through the book, I'm having to often replace the word "overeating" with "forgetting to eat." I also find myself having to replace the concept of my world revolving around food with the concept that healthy food will make me feel better even if I have no appetite or the idea of eating is nauseating in a particular moment. I look like an overeater. I am definitely overweight. But due to chronic health problems (one symptom of which is severe pain) I often either forget to eat due to lack of appetite (because of meds or pain) or the thought of food is nauseating (because of meds or pain). Has anyone had to face this challenge?
