The Broken Heart Diet

I have found the perfect balance between nausea and appetite. My stomach grumbles to remind me to eat, but eating makes me feel sick so I’m putting down the bare minimum so that when puking happens it’s not a bellyful.

I’m going to be so cute by the end of this breakup. :frowning:

They say living well is the best revenge. Looking hot on top of that is gravy.

Seriously, if you still can’t hold down food, try Ensure or a nutritional supplement. Your body needs calories and vitamins and minerals and all that.

I lost a good 20 lbs or so when I undertook the Breakup Diet. It gets better in time.

Yep, The Broken Hearted Diet is very affective. Especially if you didn’t see it coming. My pants are feeling a bit snug. Somebody! Break my heart and crush my soul!

No nono…just kidding. Please don’t. I have enough of the tiny, everyday heartbreaks to deal with.

Do make sure to get some electrolytes into you. Treat it as if you have a stomach flu and are in danger of dehydration by drinking water and also some Gatorade or Powerade or Pedialyte or whatever it takes. Even if you only hold it down for a little, you’ll get some benefits.

I’m sorry you’re going through this. My mom would suggest hot tea, cinnamon toast, and ginger ale—her cures for what ails everyone.

The Breakup Diet is nature’s way of getting you back into shape for the dating pool!

Seriously tho - milkshakes or ensure or just a couple of bites of a banana so you don’t make yourself undernourished or weak. Try to drink lots as well, as long as you stay hydrated, food is less of a concern. If you’re feeling queasy, don’t drink straight water - go for watered down tea or lemonade or sports drink stuff. For some reason things with a slight taste seem to sit better than just plain water.

This is why I threw my Pity Party (there are balloons, but they are the sad, half-deflated kind. Don’t eat the cake) on the Dope. I did not think about electrolytes or dehydration at all, only that food doesn’t sit well these days. I bet if I got some Pedialyte into me I wouldn’t feel so run down.

**jsgoddess, ** tea is actually staying down, I’ve been drinking a ton of it and other tan having to pee every 20 minutes it’s more soothing than I would have thought.
