here's an update on my condition

[Baliset]

the overall nausea i was experiencing continued into the night when i got to byron's house and i thought i would be fine with soem saltine's and some lime seltzer but i think the citric acid in the seltzer upset my stomach and i had to vomit one last time including a moment of panic as byron's roomate kiko was in the bathroom and we struggled to find an alternate place for me to vomit. luckily she got out in time and i ran in and took care of business.

then i simply laid down on their couch and fell asleep and as i woke up at varying points in the night i noticed my stomach was feeling a ton better and this morning i woek up with no feelings of nausea at all and just some soreness in my chest and sides and back and arms.

<------- will never eat at China Buffet in RI EVER again.

China Buffet?

So, your diet is over?

 

[Baliset]

no it isn't over by a longshot. i was eating super well the entire weekend and decided one little bit of chinese food wouldn't be bad. i didn't even eat all that much of the nasty stuff. i had essentially one small plate of food and some grapes and alot of green tea.

i think my body just forgot what MSG is all about and had a bad reaction.

and speaking opf my diet. i weighed myself last night and i lost another seven pounds and i bet i puked up up only about two pounds worth of food probably.

"China Buffet" sounds like a recipe for disaster. those sorts of places are never okay.

 

[FuSoYa]

Wow Greg so you lost 17 pounds in 2 weeks? I may be wrong but that kind of sounds like an unhealthy rate. Have you been sick for a while?

 

[minxnim]

i'm glad you're feeling better greg

 

[avi]

aren't you only supposed to lose like a pound a week or something? I was reading something about that awhile ago, but I dunno for sure.

i haven't felt sick but yeah that sounded a bit much to me too so i am trying to slow down the rate a bit.

 

[Baliset]

also i haven't been starving myself at all or anything. i have been eating three meals a day and everything, just i have replaced burgers with salds etc.

 

[Baliset]

salads i meant.

 

[FuSoYa]

stomachaches? pooping blood?

i'm just saying that rate of weight loss sounds a bit seippish!

 

[minxnim]

when someone first starts dieting they generally tend to lose a lot of excess water weight because in dieting, they eat less sodium, and thus retain less water. greg is OK guys don't worry.

 

[Baliset]

no stomachaches or blood-pooping or anything weird like that. my poops have been fine.

 

[Baliset]

actually my stomach hurt after vomiting so much but i mean that is to be expected.

also i haven't really changed what i wa eating in those two weeks and the amount i lose per week is decreasing so i think that sodium thing is the cause.

 

[minxnim]

it'll level out. if you cut out too much food at first you'll slow your metabolism down, so don't go too low!

p.s. greg i sent you a PM
