I have been stuck in my house for the last two days with some evil sort of stomach bug. I am hating it. I don’t like being non-functional. It’s one thing to lay your lazy ass on the couch for two days, it’s completely another to not be able to get out of bed. Yesterday was spent completely in bed (other than the trips to the bathroom and to get some water) and sleeping. I think I spent a total of 5 hours awake. Today was a little better. Smells still make my stomach turn, but I have been able to keep down some toast, a baked potato and I’m going to try some mac and cheese. I have napped a little today, but not slept the day away like yesterday.
I’m hoping that this little stomach battle has created some weight loss. I have been really slacking in the WW arena. I am an emotional eater and my emotions have been on a serious rollercoaster lately. I have been the person who always has the happy face on. Even though I am snarky and bitter about my job, I never really let people know how unhappy that I really am. Let’s just say that I am not happy right now…but I can’t exactly put my finger on why. I think it is an accumulation of many little things. So, I am working on one thing at a time. Eventually I will return to my happy-go-lucky self.

WOW Steph. That totally sucks that you have been so sick. Hopefully you are over the worst of it and will start feeling better every day. We NEED that happy-go-lucky person back. Hopefully our little agreement to make ourselves work for rewards will help us both get back on the WW bandwagon. WE CAN DO IT! And we WILL do it. Get better soon.
