No, I'm not about to do a product review for Twisted Honey BBQ Fritos. (Can you imagine? "A mere 9 grams of fat per handful!") Aaron brought these home two days ago. I'm not sure why but I think it has something to do with football season and the snacks that are apparently inseperable from the sport. mmm. Not sure where the logic is there, this is what I got:
"Honey BBQ FRITOS??"
"What. There was a football game on." Duh. He looks at me as though that explains it all.
So I found myself snacking on some of these not-so-tasty twisted morsels. And a couple of hours later, I felt ILL. And thanks to Kery's post the other day, I was starting to feel excited that I felt ill. "Wow!" I thought to myself, "I am actually at the point where I feel really sick when I ingest really salty, highly processed crap! YAY! I mean, I don't eat sugar...very often, and I really try to stay away from white flour...(Ritz don't count), and I never would even dream of eating anything but fruits, veggies, fish, soythings, sprouts..."
Ok, so maybe my upset stomach was from something else.
Perhaps it was:
a) A weird stomach bug with no other symptoms
b) The stress and lack of sleep from last week catching up with me
c) The Fresca and fruit snacks that accompanied these Fritos
d) Really bad gas that made me feel more nauseous than gaseous
e) Pregnancy (HAHAHAHA! ok. but really, i'm not laughing. I just threw that one in there to have another multiple choice option. Beyond the realm of possibility)
Or Maybe, just MAAAAYbe, I really was just ill from those Fritos and my body really is adjusting to being healthier. I crossed my fingers when I went to bed last night. But alas, I woke up and the weird stomach cramping and nausea was there and STAYED there all morning and afternoon. So the answer I believe would be a combination of a and b with maybe a dash of c that exacerbated d. As for e, well, let's just say "Phew!"
(For those of you who saw this post earlier...then didn't...sorry! Having blogger issues with timing post options. )

Weigh-in, Just Not Today
I'm sick. I have a sore throat. waaa.
It's such a weird sensation when food doesn't really taste like anything. Especially for someone who LOVES food. I repeat: I love food.
Keeping that in mind, I thought I'd share what I ate yesterday.
Sprite Zero
grapefruit (this tasted the best by the way on my achey throat)
Orange Juice
and those mini-crullers. You may notice that that hostess bag is -ahem- not completely empty. There is one left. The only thing I didn't include was the bowl of "Life" cereal I ate in the morning. After that I went basically the whole day without eating a thing (I know, not smart). Swallowing just wasn't happening. So the rest was consumed around 8 pm when I finally decided that I really did need to eat because I was feverish and shaking. It's like my body was saying:
Must. Have. Food. You IDIOT!
So I think Mol and I will weigh in on Monday. I don't want to see the scale say something to get me excited or depressed, when it's all probably dehydration or crullers. My body's just out of whack right now and I'd rather not deal with any drastic changes. Monday maybe, not today.
