View NIKKI8's food & exercise for this day
Still not feeling well. Not much appetite. I don't know what the deal is, but the baby doesn't have much appetite either. We must have a bug. I was feeling a little better this morning and was all set to report in my blog that I feel better. But then I forced myself to eat a protein bar after my workout this am. And then my stomach started cramping.
But the worst is the pain in my ribs is getting sharper. It was a dull ache, but it's definitely sharper now. Is there a connection? I'm so afraid of that tear-your-hair-our pain.
So I did the only thing I know to do when my stomach is that upset, I have no appetite and I just feel blah. I ate a little icecream. Seriously, it settles my stomach. I don't understand it but it has always been soothing to my stomach. When I had celiac symptoms and didn't know why, icecream seemed to help.
While I think this is a bug, I want to promise myself and to anyone reading this that I'm not going to eat gluten on purpose anymore. That was so stupid on Tuesday. I thought that was why I was so sick, but the effects wouldn't last this long. But I remember now how awful it feels to be "gluttened" and the taste of the food is just not worth it.

I didn't like Plum Lovin at all.
:nono1: I was very disappointed. I didn't like Visions of Sugar Plums either. They are called between the numbers novels and they really blow....Stick with the numbers, they ROCK!

Sorry you still don't feel well. The good thing, (if you could call it that) about the stomach flu is that it is usually short lived.

Yeah I agree with Corinne, if the ice cream makes it feel better, dont feel bad about it. Sounds like you're not eating much otherwise anyway, you need SOMETHING in there!

Hope you and the little guy are all better really soon. Being sick stinks!
:evil: Don't worry about the ice cream. If it helped it was worth it. 
:kiss: to you both!

I'm sorry your down, but it does sound like a good ol' stomach bug. Hope it is all in the past soon. HUGS!
