Weigh In with Stomach Issues...

I haven't felt well since Friday night -- some kind of weird stomach thing. Hubby wanted Grandy's for dinner Friday night and usually when he wants something like that I just go get something else. My stomach and taste buds don't go for that much greasy fried food anymore so I almost always go get something different. BUT...this time I felt like having a good ol' chicken fried chicken, so I went ahead with the order. I took it home, ate it and actually enjoyed it UNTIL about 1 1/2 hrs later!! Since then my stomach has been upset and nauseated. I spent a good part of Friday night and Saturday in the bathroom. I haven't vomited and I haven't had the "runs", but I haven't felt good. My stomach has been rumbly and upset. Yesterday, was the first day since Friday that I did more than the basics of living and last night I was extremely tired. So needless to say I have broken my run on the 100 Days of Moving Challenge that I have been working on. I did walk a lot yesterday at the Arboretum and I did SOME of the #tworkout last night with the Sisterhood so at least I moved more than from the bathroom to the couch and kitchen yesterday but I certainly haven't done what I planned to do this week. I'm hoping to be well enough to run tomorrow since the weather here has been so nice and I really need to prepare for the 5k that is coming up on the 16th of April.

Since my stomach was a mess the past few days I wasn't too worried about losing at least a little weight...it's hard to gain weight when you don't eat much but I have to admit I was a bit disappointed to see the number on the scale this morning: 196.4. I know it's better than gaining and having a greater than 1 pound loss is good but you would think with all the misery I would have been rewarded for it in a more positive way!

Anyway, I am looking at "detox plans"...I think it is time to kick my body into high gear and get all these toxins out of my system. If you have anything that has worked for you in the past, please share with me, k?

Btw, Friday, March 25th is my 2 year anniversary since I started working through this weight loss, so come back Friday for a special edition. I'm planning a couple of special things!!

i'm sorry that you haven't been feeling well, but isn't it awesome that your body isn't use to that crap any more??

it's amazing to me what our bodies get use to eating or not eating and then when we eat something out of the ordinary our tummys revolt! Good luck wiht your 5k training!
