Velena 122 Posted December 2, 2012 Ready, Momofthing and Newgrandmother: So sorry you've been sick, Sounds like you've been keeping yourselves on the right track with OTC meds and trips to the ER when needed. Hang in there ladies, we'll make it past all this and have a great New Year! And a much healthier, thinner New Year too. 2 ready4change77 and geewalk reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kparker0501 88 Posted December 3, 2012 OH My!! Just read my emaisl here. I am so sorry you all are sick! MOM- I had the flu and drank Coconut Water. It helped so much!! I was able to keep it down and whatever was in there seriously made me feel better within a day. I swear by it now. NGMA- Sounds like you are finally on the mend?? Ready- You might benefit from the coconut water also. Fluids fluids fluids!! Get well soon ladies. ((Hugs)) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Momofthing1thing2thing3 116 Posted December 3, 2012 Feeling better. Took a shower without passing out...yeah, me. But I am so weak. My job is a chore today. Need to rest and drink more. Kparker -- just plain coconut Water? might try that when I feel well enough to drive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kparker -- just plain coconut Water? might try that when I feel well enough to drive. MOM- Yes! It is bottled now at your grocery store.I use the plain coconut water but they do have chocolate flavored, never tried it. I get mine at Trader Joes but I know it is at the regular store too. It REALLY works for hangovers too, or so I have heard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greenfamily004 172 Posted December 3, 2012 Zoo I had a day or two like that. The pain was right in my navel area when getting up or down. Went away after that. If it last more than a day or two you need to call your Doctor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kparker0501 88 Posted December 4, 2012 NEWGM- LOL, guilty. But seriously ithe Coconut Water works sooo well. I have had some coctails too with the sleeve and I felt fine. Can NOT do beer but I do ok with wine and vodka. I have only had a couple of drinks since the surgery because I know it is way too many calories for me. I did get a little too buzzed on the Vodka though, It hit fast. I am such a cheap date now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Momofthing1thing2thing3 116 Posted December 4, 2012 Alright fellow sleevers, especially those of you who have been sick lately: Getting over the stomach flu, haven't vomited or had any diarrhea since saturday. But here is the new issue and I'm looking for input on should I be worried. I can't eat, and I can barely drink. Honestly, I think I've had all day today, maybe 1 1/2 cups of food at the most. And it just sits there in my tiny tum. I can feel it even now, and I ate...well tried to eat..over 3 hours ago. Drinking is a joke. I sip, but I cannot seem to get enough in. I know I'm dehydrated...the color of my pee and my increasingly chapped lips tell me that. I'm starting to freak out here. Yes I'm still weak. But I cannot seem to get in enough nutrition to make me stronger. Suggestions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
