(channelling the "Soup Nazi" from Seinfeld for my title today)
I got the stomach bug yesterday, & spent the afternoon & evening hugging the porcelain thrown.
Being sick sucks.
Both the kids had this--Luke threw up on Easter Sunday morning, & Sophie was sick last week on Thursday (in the middle of the night). This virus seems to have a 4 day incubation period & lasts about 24 hours.
I had planned on running yesterday. I had planned on lifting weights today. Guess what I get to do instead?
Nothing but feel sick & sorry for myself.
I must say, in a twisted way I enjoyed seeing a 4 pound loss on the scale this morning. Yes, yes, it was all water weight. But it was hard earned--puking your guts out is tough work! Hahaha.
I'm still feeling quesy & the thought of most food makes me sick (bonus! more weight loss). Seriously, I can't wait to feel better. I'm so thankful this is happening now & not next week. The half marathon is a mere 11 days away.
Maybe I can manage to maintain the Stomach Flu Diet weight loss until then.

Ah, poor Laura! Hope you and your kids feel better soon!
Yikes! 11 days, I'm getting nervous for you!
Helen says honey will stop the puking - at she's right it does!
Hope you begin to feel better soon.
Ugh! Hope you feel better soon!
Ack! So sorry you are sick! What's the deal with all the sickness going around????
Hope you feel better soon!!
Last year I had vomit disease for a day and lost 4 pounds...and kept it off. So it is possible. BUT that was one of the worst days of my life, so... ;-)
And, yes...honey is the BEST. :-)
