After being sick for so long, I finally have a name for my illness: Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, otherwise known as P.O.T.S.

A cardiac condition that's stripped me of my health, weight (causing me to drop to anorexic weight), self confidence, friends, jobs and continuing my education.

My goals are simple: gain weight, be healthier, and get out more. Basically, get my life back!

I'm also hoping to spread some awareness on this little known condition, and to highlight the struggles of the underweight and people with "invisible illnesses."

55

Breakfast: brownies (bad!) (~400c)
Snack: gatorade, rice cakes (tons of salt) (~300c)
Dinner: hamburgers stuffed with pepperjack cheese....super crazy delicious. plus gingerale (~650c)


Total: 1350. not a good day, i've had a pain in my side for three days now- my mom's concerned my appendix is 'inflamed' so we'll see what happens. im not sure if it's that or a side effect of the pill.
