Fast Food Woes

So…I took my Little Sister out for the first time this weekend! We had fun, but she’s really quiet, so it took a lot to get her to talk. She seemed to have a good time though. We’re going out again in two weeks to Ruffner Mt Park. The great outdoors :)

We had Backyard Burgers for dinner, and it was the first time I’ve had fast food in weeks. Maybe a month. I can’t remember. Anyway, I was gonna let that be my one cheat meal of the week, so I got a double cheeseburger, fries, and Pepsi. Oh my gosh, was that a mistake. I hadn’t even finished half my meal when my stomach started feeling bad. And it slowly got worse. I don’t think I’ve ever had such bad bloating/gas/stomach pain. WOW! The only reason I can think for such a strange reaction is that my body has grown accustomed to healthier food than that, and it was just too much for me. The pain and bloating lasted all night Saturday, and all day Sunday. I finally had to take an enema (sorry to gross you out) to relieve myself, b/c I guess all that beef and grease backed me up. I don’t know the true reason for it, but after such a horrible experience, I feel like I never EVER want to eat fast food, EVER again.

    Backyard Burger? Hmmm sounds yummy but we don’t have that chain out here.

    It happens often; once you start eating healthy, junk food makes you feel horrible.

    That’s great you volunteer and have a little sister!

    Man I know what you mean, in March for my b-day I ate a ton of junk and my stomach was pissed off for like 3 days. I had to take pepto around the clock, it did help some.

    Funny how the body gets accustomed to how we either respect it (with “healthy” eating) or traumatize it (with, well, what we did to get to where we are:) ), huh?

    Hope you had fun with the Little Sister - great thing you’re doing. Karma will reward you with

    I am glad you had fun with your “little sister”. I am sure as she gets to know you better she will open up more.

    so sorry, the fast food did a number on your belly. I can certainly tell when I have had something bad now too.
