Since I been feeling guilty about not eating three meals a day.
I try to force myself to eat three times a day even if it's a peanut butter and jelly uncrustable with soda. Been doing that as of late and when dinner finally rolls around I am sick to my stomach and not hungry. I have to take my meds tonight and need to take them with food but my stomach is so nauseous that eating any kind of food is the last thing on my mind. I bought a chef salad to eat tonight on campus and had them specially make it for me since there was one on a la carte but they put turkey lunch meat in it and turkey lunch meat makes me gag when I am hungry so I avoid it like the plague. My hubby said since I don't feel good and am stable that skipping a nights dose wouldn't hurt. The daughter is all worried about me and said I should take my meds even if I am feeling crappy because she wants to continue to have a sane mom. "I have to take my meds with a full stomach so food is really not an option right now. What would you do if you were me?

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
DO NOT MISS A DOSE
I am so PISSED! i got a salad that I was gonna look forward to eating but won't be able to eat it until tomorrow and he won't get off of his lazy ass and go to the store for me....God sometimes he knows how to piss me off!
Seriously though head to supermarket or to hollands and barretts and get some ginger tea, its not the nicest thing to drink but it will settle your upset stomach
I am so glad I switched to this pharmacy over CVS because their service is way better. I should see if taking the meds on an empty stomach is optional due to circumstances beyond my control.
Try for small meals through out the day. I eat almost the same thing every day-a granola bar with tea, later a small amt fruit, then later a small yogurt, mid afternoon half a subway w/ extra vegies...small dinner...I don't vary much or I get in trouble. Frankly, the foods you listed all sound queasy making to me, especially the chef salad. What about soup? Have you tried chicken noodle or something like that?
Good luck with all this.
