I was so sick yesterday that I skipped lunch

I've been eating very well since 01-29-09,  I've bee getting all of my meals and not skipping anything.  I've been sugar and white carb free and I no longer eat any junk food.  I've gotten used to my new way of eating and I weigh and measure everything I eat.

I just couldn't do it yesterday.  The day started out fine and I had my normal breakfast.  But, before lunch I laid down and started running a fever,  My wife took my temp and it was over 102.  I could barely sit up on my sofa.  I had a helluva afternoon where I had to urinate every 5 minutes--I used a portable urinal since I couldn't get up.  I even skipped lunch.  That's the first time I've missed a meal since 01-29.  I finally had dinner around 8 pm--I was still on the sofa and my temp was down to 100.

Today I'm fairly ok .  I've had these 24 hour bugs in the past but they usually occur in the winter.  My back is still sore.  Oh, I wish I could take something stronger than extra strength Tylenol.  I know this too will pass.

I just hope I'm feeling fine tomorrow because my family is coming to see me and we're having brunch at Sebastian's Schnitzelhaus.  It's an eat whatever you want brunch for $14.95 per person.  I've been very good whenever I go there and I follow my diet without problem  The only problem I'm now having with my diet is in trying to restrict foods that are rich in vitamin K since I have to take Coumadin.

Hope things are better for you today. Just rest and do what you can. Progress not perfection.
