What's one thing that everyone looks forward to during the thanksgiving holiday besides being with their family? All that food! I've been an athlete my whole life and burn a lot of calories during the week so I can put down a good amount of food without gaining too much weight. I love that I am able to eat good tasting food without having to worry about gaining weight because I know I would burn it off in a day or two, so I was really looking forward to a good thanksgiving feast this break. The night before thanksgiving dinner I went out to dinner with my dad and step mom to a Japanese steak house. Sushi is one of my favorite types of food, so I had to get at least one sushi roll with my meal.
The meal was a great success and tasted amazing, but my thoughts were still set on that big thanksgiving dinner that was still to come the next day. As we proceeded to leave the restaurant I began to feel a pain in my stomach. As we drove home the pains began to grow bigger and stronger by each passing minute. By the time we pulled into our driveway, my body felt like it was about to explode. Yup, you guessed it! Food poisoning just my luck. As I spent the rest of the night in the bathroom and laying in my bed I couldn't help but think about all the great food that I might be missing out on due to this stomach flu.
The next morning I woke up feeling a little better, but I knew that there was no way that my stomach could handle a full course feast that I had been planning on eating since break started, and as dinner time came around it turned out that I was right. Even though I didn't get to enjoy as much food that I had planned on enjoying this break at least the my food poising passed quickly without me being seriously sick.
