It has to get better because I don't know how much my body can endure. I'm dropping weight each day. 

I know you have food intolerances, but wondering if you can tolerate high fat/calorie choices just to get jump started. For me, when my weight dropped so low, I could barely push open heavy doors in a public place. That's when I decided I didn't care what I had to eat, I needed to gain weight no matter what it took. I ate fast food, ice cream, candy bars until I had the weight on my body I needed to survive. No dietician gave guidance and likely wouldn't promote this as a healthy diet, but it was absolutely necessary for a few months to get that weight on and as quickly as possible. Weight gain often just won't happen with chicken and soft veggies when you are so depleted. It may be some will say the junk food diet is not the way to go, but sometimes desperate times require desperate measures and thinking outside the box.
