That?..

… Was the worst, most horrible, yucky, and humbling stomach bug I have EVER had in my existence. I know I’m a drama mama. But, it really was the most awful illness I think I’ve ever had. I’ve been hospitalized for pneumonia, I’ve had my appendix removed, I learned to walk again after giving birth to a 10 1/2 pound child, and I’ve been run over by a Dodge Pickup– I KNOW what pain is. But, If you would have asked me two days ago, I would have sworn I was on my death bed.

I’ve seriously had some bad stomach bugs– What stomach bugs aren’t bad? But I don’t think I’ve had one this intense or this lasting. The kids are healthy and happy, which made it easier for Jeremy while I was sick. Thank Heavens for that!

Anyways, thought I’d update y’all. It’s going to take me a few days to get back on track with life, blogging, etc. I lost 8 pounds in 5 days, and can only eat a few bites at a time even now.

This one was a meanie! But, I’m looking forwards to gaining 8 pounds on Thursday (hopefully the belly agrees by then)! Whhoooo-hoooo! I love me some Turkey Day!

I was just thinking about you last night; wondering how you were feeling. I’m glad to see you are at least able to post.

I’m glad the kiddos are doing well.

Mommy sickness is always so much worse because it comes with a dose of guilt (at least mine do).

Feel free to keep your bug on that side of the US.

I hope you can enjoy your Thanksgiving, at least you can eat whatever you want without feeling guilty. There is an up-side to everything.

Welcome back!

Ah… there’s nothing like a good ol’ flu to help you with your weightloss plan.
