... Get really sick with some unknown abdominal thing.

Be unable to eat anything at all except for some clear fluids. For over two weeks.

The pounds come right off!

I think I'll name it "Delora's Unwanted Starvation Diet" and patent it.

And see if I can make LOTS OF MONEY!

Skinny or not, we just want you better.

Eh, if I don't keep a sense of humor, I'll end up just laying down and dying at this point.

So... yay. And crap.

I've often wished for that diet, honestly, and probably would pay lots of money for it. LOL But I'm kind of a puss, so I doubt I'd

take it very well.

Delora: They sure do. You should ask them to check your potassium levels - so they don't get too low. Sadly, there's no nice way to get

the supplements - either horse pills, nasty tasting drink or iv bags that burn where the fluid enters, but you need to have them check

what you are going through is likely to lower your potassium dangerously.

I think horse pills are the best option -

Mmm horse pills.

the drnk is gagtastic and the iv burns at the injection and about another 1/4 inch for the entire 8 hours it takes to empty

blargle.

On that note, I'm going to bake a potato in hopes of being able to eat it. Baked potatoes are high in potassium.

And.. they're a very simple starch, so it may stay down.

yay, crossing mt fingers

And... I have a couple of VERY small baked potatoes. Yes I said two, but... they're the size of those little taters you boil up

So it's more like... a half of a potato

and I'm eating it nice and slowly.
