Those following me on FB know this about me, as do most of my family, but I thought I would at least put a post on here to keep up with my schedule.
Last Thursday,after eating breakfast (just cold cereal) I started feeling nauseous. I felt bad the rest of the day and only had chocolate milk for both lunch and dinner. The next day I had the same for breakfast, but got go-gurt and juice for lunch (actually worked quite nicely). Friday night saw me eating pizza and cheese-sticks--and regretting it!
Enter Saturday. We had to go north for a Softball Tourney for our Youngest Daughter. They did fairly well, but more importantly, not only did I have breakfast again, but I also ate lunch. My stomach was not happy about working harder that quickly, but I was doing alright.
After returning home, we left shortly later to go south for an Improv performance. Very funny, but before we stopped at the town in between and ate at our favorite Mexican Restaurant. Not wanting to push my digestive system too far, I thought sea-food would be a good way to go. WRONG!
Crab Enchiladas sounded good at the time, but did NOT taste as good as I had hoped. I believe that is because the Crab had gone BAD! Either that, or my flu turned back around to wipe me out again! Inklings, if you're reading this, don't order the crab enchiladas there! Normally, this place is great.
Anyway, I spent all last night and all of today either in bed or on the porcelain (or kneeling in front of it). Sorry to get so graphic there! I'll spare you any other details, except that I actually pulled a muscle this morning on one of my visits. I'll leave you to your imagination on that one.
I just hope that tomorrow will see me eating solid food again. If not, Go-gurt, Here I come!

I was just thinking. When I've had kids with stomach problems, the doctor has told me to keep them off dairy products because that makes the problem worse. Stick to the Brat diet. (bananas, rice, applesauce, toast) for a few days.
Oh, and be sure to keep liquids in you, but try to avoid overly sweet ones as that can also make the problem worse. But you don't want to get dehydrated. But hey, maybe you will lose a few pounds in the process! ;)
