I just finished up my last FEC-T (or Fec-“D” as they call it here)… I won’t lie and say it was fun, but the anticipation before it started was probably the worst part. Gets better once you know what to expect at least, and can plan out your schedule. I always try to plan a fun meal or two out during the last week when my appetite is a bit better and energy is back up. Dreaming about food has gotten me through some rough days! Good luck and hope you have an easy first cycle.
