I'm so bummed! Last night DH toook me out for pre-valentines dinner as he is out of town today, so we had my favorite (ok, one of my faves!) Chinese. Follow that with a strawberry Blizzard from DQ and I'm only over 7 points for day. Great! However...... I was miserable before we even got home. I don't know if I have eaten healthy for so long (3 weeks) and it just didn't agree with me, or what. I have been sick all day today, and am not sure. Is this "normal"? I haven't cheated once!
BTW- Happy Valentines Day all!!!

Hmm... i've got a digestive disorder and after I spend weeks being good, then indulge in something really crappy for me, i get the same feeling. I think our bodies are saying, "What the **** is this? Where's the salad? Fries? FRIES? Are you trying to kill me????"
Anyway, I just drink lots of water and eat raw carrots. A pregnant friend of mine tells me they're wonderful for heartburn and indegestion.
I think I had the same situation this weekend. I went to Bakers Square and allowed myself to have chicken "strips" (which I quote since they were really stubby and round, a little bigger than a chicken nugget). Anyhoo, a few hours later my stomach had some sudden, major issues. It continued to once yesterday, as well. All I can figure is that it was the grease fromt he chicken. I had nothing else different than I've been eating. I realized that my body hadn't had any grease in at least a month and I think that was it's retribution. It may have aided in my 3.2 loss this week but I'm not complaining!
And the nugget-strips were very yummy, by the way!
I think that's absolutely why you felt icky. The same thing happens to me if I break and eat something not-so-good for you. Like half of my vacation...I am still recovering from the icky's from that.
Oh Ya! I can't eat fast food (McD's, Burger King, etc), chips or Philly chip dip or anything oily anymore - my body just can't deal with it the way it used to.
Yesterday my boss took all the ladies out for a Valentine's Day lunch. We went to this buffet that has the best fried chicken. I ate a bunch of salad and then had 2 chicken wings. As I was eating them I realized that they tasted way too greasy and could not even finish the second one. After I got back to work my tummy started to not feel so good.
I have noticed now that I am watching what I eat the fatty foods I use to love sometimes don't taste as good as they use to and they do make me feel tired and sick. I am also starting to crave sugar less and it takes less chocolate to satisfy me. I think sometimes we binge on an old favorite as comfort, but in reality it does not taste very good.
Say it isn't so....
