I am sick. Right now I am getting better, but Friday morning I got a flu that came in stages. Friday I was throwing up. Saturday morning I felt OK. I really felt good mid-day and went to drill. Saturday evening I was bad again--at the other end. All night I made a dozen trips to the bathroom and spent most of Sunday in bed.
This morning I ate a little and feel better. At this point I have lost ten pounds in four days. Like my other diets, I do not recommend it.
Veteran of four wars, four enlistments, four branches: Air Force, Army, Army Reserve, Army National Guard. I am both an AF (Air Force) veteran and as Veteran AF (As Fuck)
