    Tricia...i would just focus on getting better....just got over being sick myself, and i just managed...somedays I couldn't barely eat anything...just make sure you guys are getting lots of fluids and rest...take care of yourselves.

    I didn't take any supps or anything, no sense if your not eating properly. I was told to not take them, no sense if your not taking food in, nothing to burn!!

    I hope this passes quickly for you guys!!

  • Well my daughter is back to normal..

    I on the other hand am feeling like a truck hit me... no real food in today... just ginger ale and crackers.... oh and one banana.... still deciding whether that is going to stay down... only time will tell...

    so i guess that gives me another day to study for my finals this w/e even though my brain is barely able to process.
  • i am wondering if i take the detox supplement tomorrow if that will help get this out of my system faster...

    thoughts anyone?
  • I did my weigh in today and was at 255... so far i have lost 10.6lbs. I am gonna start eating and taking my supplements again and hope i get over this bug....
  • Hope you are feeling better Tricia. It's so hard to lose when you aren't feeling well
  • Thanks for those who posted recipes. I'm going to have to try them. I don't know why but I am big into recipes right now. I am actually just baking a Cheesy Broccoli Surprise for lunch I've shared some of my recipes on FB.
  • on the mend here.. i don't know if i am going back up to my veggie quota today though.. veggies are rough on the tummy and digestion...

    cheesy brocolli suprise sounds yummy.. must check for recipe on FB.. Is there a note area started for recipes.. we can post some and give ideas..
  • today totally suck.. i gaied 3.2lbs since monday... WTH...

    I am mad mad mad... and need to get back to the swing of things... i drank 1.5l of water last night.. i was soo dehydrated.. and i am almost done 1.5 already this morning... so maybe i could get in 3l of water and that will make me happy...
  • Tricia...just focus on getting all the sodium out of you. You ate soup and crackers....imagine all the salt in those 2 things....I personally also find if I drink pop of any sort, it bloats me, anyone else find this? Maybe this is happening to you as well? who knows.

    You will likely have to drink lots of water to flush your system. I am so very sorry your going through this, as if you didn't feel bad enough with being sick. I know how you feel though, when I weighed yesterday and was up 1.5lbs....I was not happy, but I know it is because I am back to eating...lastweek was a tough week, couldn't eat anything. Then lastnight..well that is done and over now so....

    Keep strong...don't let it get you down.
  • Hang in there ladies. We all know we are going to hit bumps along our journey and we just have to remember that we will get over that hill.

    Tricia - I think Kim is right you need to flush your system. It's hard when you are sick but because we don't ususally have a lot of salt or sugar in our diet it is hard on our bodies. You can do it girl!

    Kim - Sorry to hear about you and hubby. We are hear to listen or if you want to talk just send me a message or give me a call ((HUGS))
  • i binged at supper tonight... shesh today is not a good day...I am gonna be drinking water like crazy for the next three days and get back into the swing of things.. and really need to figure out exercise i can do...
  • OMG I am soooo worried about my wi today. I wasn't so good last night. The pressure just killed me. I did stick with my chicken salad with ff raspberry vinigrette dressing and it was a HUGE salad which I didn't eat the whole thing. It was the damn nachos and salsa they leave on the table and then everyone kept saying "You look so good. Treat yourself" blah blah blah. So I had a few bites of apple crumble and it was sooooo yummy. I'm worried about the salt though. So at 10:30 am I have already had my 8 glasses of water and am hoping to flush it out LOL. Wish me luck!
  • Good Luck Tamara....how did you make out???

    Tricia...just get back on that horse my dear!!!
  • ok so today was not good either.. went to a cookie exchange.. and well there was naughty food..

    why did i start this diet before christmas?
