After vomiting

[purplepenguin]

Advice needed please. I’ve been vomiting for the last two days thanks to a stomach bug. Starting to feel a bit more human now but wondering what to attempt to eat. Before low carving I’d have had half a piece of toast but I can’t think of anything I want to eat that would be kind to my stomach.

Please help

I'd probably go for some yogurt or cheese, small amounts and see how they settle in.
N virus not much fun, take care and liquids up.

I just had stomach flu. Stay away from dairy, will make you throw-up. I had turkey broth on day 1, mushroom soup on day 2 (made with water), then light meal on day 3 (small piece of lean meat and broccoli).

I was ill a few weeks ago, when I did eat it was toast, a bit of cheese, then soup, not talking massive portions but you do need to sustain yourself and this is what I would say was in a less than ordinary circumstance. When you are better go back to a great diet but for today I would eat what makes you feel better.

get better, stay hydrated, and enjoy the indulgence of a bit of what you fancy!

I had a quarter of a piece of toast. So far so good but couldn’t eat any more.

Just eat what makes you feel OK and don't worry about it being low carb. You can sort your normal diet out once you get better. I always think a small bowl of chicken or tomato soup makes me feel better, and toast is a very good idea. Hope you feel better soon.

As already said, eat what you think you can manage and don`t worry about low carb `cos you`re not going to eat that much anyway! I can usually manage soft boiled egg when ill but of course we`re all different, get well soon. Chris.

scrambled eggs with a bit of cheese and finely chopped tomato on top.
It is what babies in rich families were given when weaning - the babies in poor families were given 'pobs' - bread soaked in water. Guess which ones did better?

how are you doing?

Chicken soup.
obviously with careful awareness of any carbs.
homemade is best.

I had The Tummy Bug From Hell over Xmas, and found chicken soup to be a universal panacea, and thoroughly enjoyable too.

how are you doing?

Went back to work today but still feel queasy. Haven’t eaten anything but kept up my fluids. About to attempt some home made chicken soup.

Thank you for asking

I have to confess to a few jelly beans to make sure I had enough energy, the idea of sweets on a daily basis not one I want now but they for one occasion were sooo nice

So the toast I had that day has caused havoc with my carb cravings. I want to eat all the carbs I see. Hoping the cravings will go in a few more days. I have, so far, been strong and not caved in.

There's a lot of this bug about and it can last for weeks.
Just wen you think it's over you're chucking up again.
I seem to be surrounded by it and have been for weeks but so far not caught it.
