Another Star

It's Friday which means weight in day! I needed to lose 2 pounds to earn another 5 pound star. I lost 4. That brings me to a total weight loss of 17 pounds in 5 weeks. I felt good that I was going to lose those 2 pounds this week. I think the other 2 came from being sick as a dog last night. I will spare you you the disgusting details and just say I am surprised I had the energy to even get out of bed this morning. It was just awful.

Of course I am leaving first thing in the morning for Michigan so the flu couldn't have come at a worse time. However the nausea seems to be settling down now so maybe it's just a 24 hour thing or something I ate yesterday. I can't even remember the last time I was sick like this and sure hope I don't experience it again anytime soon. I just want the upset stomach and light headed feeling to go away before tomorrow. I don't have a thing packed yet either and I have to do laundry. Something I didn't know how I was going to manage to do after waking up feeling like crap. But like I said, it seems to be getting better. My stomach hurts now and I can tell it is hunger pain, but nothing sounds good to eat. Maybe I will try a wasa cracker and then some oatmeal later.
