Eating still counts.
Build a realistic food plan with your care team. Ask about protein and getting enough nourishment, especially if your appetite changes. My targets are mine; yours should fit you.

Your body still
needs looking after.
Medication is one part of a bigger plan. The routine around it deserves a little attention, too. [3]
Make hydration doable.
Keep water within reach. Ask your clinician what fluid intake makes sense for you, especially if you have a condition that requires a fluid limit.
Keep a life you can live.
My dumbbells are still part of my routine. Work with your care team on movement that fits your health, ability, and schedule. This does not need to become a second full-time job.
Less guessing. More clarity.
Keep your prescription instructions handy and follow them. Ask your pharmacist about missed doses, storage, and timing rather than borrowing a stranger’s routine.
