Sick,with Noravirus, but had some good stuff happen

Found out I have Noravirus today, lasts 5-7 days, I am on day three at home from work. I am in pain, spend most of my day in the bathroom, and have a headache. The positives are: I am .5 pounds away from the century club and weighing the same as my husband,( my goal by Christmas) I put  on a pair of his pants by accident the other day and they FIT! (he is 6'3 and 167 pounds) and in a few more trips to the bathroom, I will be at the 100 pounds lost mark. Had to have blood work done, all came back normal, even my kidney function, which was off after the sepsis. So even though I am very miserable, there were some good things that happened.

congrats on meeting that goal!

Hoping your feeling better soon.

Sorry you are sick!  CONGRATS on almost hitting your goal, by Christmas you'll surpassed it!!!!

So sorry aren't feeling well.  Hope you get better quick!   It is so cool that you are getting to all of your goals!  You rock! 

Thanks ladies. So far the scale thing is the only bright spot in being sick, I lost 5 pounds in 3 days! I am hoping to feel better by tomorrow, but it is not looking promising. Thank goodness I have a lot of vacation banked up.

HI Nicole~ I'm sorry that the bug got you, but I'm impressed that you are able to turn that negative into a positive! Congrats--and soon we'll be seeing the YA-HOO of you really celebrating the Century Club! Hope you're soon 100%! ((HUG)) **SUE**

Nicole...so sorry to hear that you are sick. What were your symptoms? Two of my clients and my friend Pam went home sick from work today. The had stomach cramps and diarreha..they said it came on fast. I hope I don't get it.  And I hope you are better soon! Congrats on your weight loss...wooohooooo...almost to the  Century Club.....lucky you!! Hugs  connie d

Connie- that's exactly how it started for me. Well, that and nausea.  Butt on toilet, and head in garbage can, and no control.  Oh yeah, and a fever.  I would be tempted to say it started all of a sudden for me, but after the fact, I realized that I had been experiencing some extra heartburn, and kind of a bloated feeling and a bit of extra tiredness for several hours before.  But it wasn't enough to be thought of as abnormal.

Oh you poor thing.  I had that last year, at almost exactly this time, and it sucked something fierce!  Congrats on the WL, and hope you feel better soon.

Started with just yucky tummy and headache. By Monday night, my knees hurt so bad I could hardly stand up. Then my lower back and rest of the joints ached. Then the diarrhea started, and hasn't stopped in 4 days. Some nausea, and fever, then chills, repeat! Blood work all came back normal. My abdomen and pouch area hurt pretty bad, and the headache just finally subsided last night. Lasts 5-7 days, and nothing you can take for it. Only thing you can do is rest and rehydrate.
