March 15
It’s Monday morning and unfortunately, nothing has changed. I made it through the first night of work of the week without too much effort but I still feel physically tired.
My appetite is barely there, but I’m forcing myself to eat even if I don’t feel like it to keep my energy level up.
So much for the strawberry margaritas causing this, maybe I have food poisoning. It’s weird. One moment I feel sick to my stomach and the next I’m a little hungry. I really don’t feel like vomiting, It’s more like I just don’t care to eat.

It’s been a week. It’s been a very long week since I started feeling sick.
A typical virus takes 7 to 10 days to run its course, this has to pass soon. (At this point I’ve given up on the strawberry margarita theory.) Maybe it’s food poisoning or just a stomach virus.
My appetite hasn’t improved and I’ve dropped about six pounds but that’s ok I can afford to lose a lot more.
Cold foods and beverages seem to be easier to consume. Instead of my nightly coffee at work, I replaced it with Gateraid. It seems to go down easier and it’s better for me anyway.
I’ve noticed I’m drinking more and eating less. I would rather drink something than eat. Sometimes the thought of chewing makes my stomach do flip-flops.
Randy was getting concerned and said I should go to a doctor. I assured him I was OK but if it didn’t go away by next week I would go.
