Atkinsers: What to do when stomach bug hits?

[dzneprincess]

I am unfortunately going through a stomach bug right now, normally I would drink sprite and eat crakcers or toast to ease my stomach. I did pick up some diet sprite, but I have had nothing to eat for over 24 hours.

ANy suggestions? I am not really hungry, BUT that it is because thinking of stuff I am allowed to eat will only make me more queasy..

I'm not on Atkins so I can't help you with your request as to what's best to eat but I did want to say I hope you are feeling lots better soon! I am sure someone here will be able to help you with your question soon though!

I went through this a few months ago.
I drank chicken broth and drank diet sprite and diet 7up. Someone suggested putting some of the canned chicken in the broth to make it like a soup.
To be quite honest I don't think a few crackers would kill you if you really feel you need them. Have just a few to help settle your tummy and when your feeling better make sure you get right back on plan.

I don't do Atkins, so I can't help with what to eat. Just want to send you some PD Hope that you are soon feeling much better.

I second the chicken broth. If you have to go to the store to get some, be sure and read the labels. Some have a lot more sugar than others. I found one with no sugar at Krogers, but it was in the health food section, not with the regular chicken broth.

I hope you're feeling better soon.

I was on clear liquids in the hospital for a couple of days and then didn't feel like eating after I got home for about a week.

I got chicken broth by Pacific, it's organic and has 1 gm of carbs. per cup. I eventually put oyster crackers in it. I ate as much as I wanted and didn't gain any weight.
Pacific makes a vegetable broth thats really delicious too!

Hope you feel better soon!
