Whatcha eating today VSGers...Wednesday!!!

OK, I am trying to not be pissed at the world today ... I have water retention (I think, I hope that is what it is) & I feel it major.  I am still struggling to be as strict on my diet as I can be since the holidays.  Geezuz, it's the 16th of January!  Goes to show I will be fighting this battle for the rest of my life!!!  It sucks to be a girl sometimes.  I have a new BC & not sure if I am on my cycle right now.  I guess that is a good thing in a way if I'm not sure ... I hope this means I wont get crazy periods still.  Sorry TMI but **** I need to vent!!  Mutha F'er, for reals!!!!!  I just want to go into hibernation today!!!

I was late to work.  I got to work with enough time to walk across the street to donate blood but then was turned away because I haven't eaten breakfast or drank water yet.  LORD!

B: Venti Skinny Peppermint Mocha (Why didn't that make me feel better after I drank it?!?)

S: none

L: Chicken Caesar Salad (I need to tell myself to order it without their homemade croutons, wah!)

S: I hope nothing.  I just cannot shake this bloated feeling, it's ******g me off!!!!

D: who the frig knows.  I better plan something so I don't eat just whatever I see first!!!

Water & Vits: um yea, I'll start now...

Someone just needs to slap me out of my funk!!!!

Just got back from the pediatrician and my son is positive for the flu. Darn it. Different strain than the flu shot, obviously. He's really not feeling well, poor dude. So he's home all week. Poor kid. But we ALL got Tamiflu. Sigh.

I hope you all feel better!!!  Sending positive vibes for your little guy!!!!

Warning...believe the paperwork with Tamiflu that it CAN make you nauseous!!!  I took two doses and swore I will never take it again.  I vomitted for hours after each dose, and ended up dehydrated, to the point that I was falling down and stopped urinating hardly at all.  I was on emergency fluid and banana diet for three days to make up for the dehydration.  Also, keep in mind, many over the counter cold meds work by "drying" you out. 

I just warn you because I never even thought about it effecting my fluid intake until it was too late and I was feeling the effects of the dehydration. I hope your family feels better soon!!

Thanks. My son is the only one sick right now, the rest of us are just getting a preventative dose. And yes, he said if I get nauseated to stop taking it, but since I have limited stomach capacity and when I'm sick my restriction is really tight, he'd rather us all take a course of it. It was hard to decide but ultimately, I can NOT get sick.
