So far, so good. Sorry you feel bloated from eating so much, but keep it up. Eat as much as you can and drink lots of water. Being hydrated will make a big difference in how you feel, so push the fluids. Please keep checking back with your progress and questions. Remember everyone is different and some people struggle alot more than others.
