i'm up to 104. the feeding tube is doing it's job. it dumps an extra 1600 calories per day into me, plus i eat regular food. i'm so excited! i've been trying to top 100 for so long now. i was stuck at 97.5 for like 2 months, then all of a sudden i gained. this means i've gained 32 pounds so far! i'm so much healthier now; when i was 72 lbs. the nurses used to have to drag double up and literally drag me if i needed to get up or i'd have to drape one arm over the nurse and one over my feeding tube pole's machinery. i'm at 82% of my ideal body weight. at 72 i was at 57%, barely. one more ounce and it wouldv'e been 56%.
i just can't explain how proud i am of myself. it's HARD to gain weight!
