Listen to your stomach

The last couple of days were some of the most miserable days of my life.

 

It all started on Friday. We had an impromptu party at work. What do I order??? Domino's Cheese Burst Pizza's. These cheesy things we so full of cheese ( and so very tasty too), that I just ended up stuffing myself on them.

 

On Saturday, a friend of mine had come down from Singapore. There were a lot of treats due and a lot of treats to be taken. So, we ended up eating out on Sat nite, Sun afternoon and Sun nite.

 

By monday, I already started feeling miserable. My stomach gave a threatening growl every time I even thought about food.

But knowing me, I just couldn't resist the temptation of free food.

 

On Monday, we had a company party at Sahib Sindh Sultan. It is one of those classy expensive restaurants, and I surely couldn't miss out on the opportunity to hog there. Even though I was warned by my stomach, I paid no heed to it and just gorged on the food.

 

That's it... by the middle of the meal, everyone could hear my stomach growling.

By the time I got back to office, I was in no state to stay here. I immediately packed my bags and got out of work. By the time I reached home, it just gave up on me. Had to rush to the bathroom :(

 

To top it up, I got fever (guess my stomach really was taking revenge).

The whole night I kept on going to the loo, every two hours. It was the worst night of my life.

 

It didn't stop the next day. I decided that it was about time that I took control. I went to a hospital and got myself checked up. Was dreading it to be some serious kind of diarrhea and hoped not to get admitted. The doctor looked at me as if I am some kinda idiot who doesn't even know the basic medicines to take for a stomach upset. He just prescribed me the standard drugs one has to take and that's it. Guess he took pity on my condition and didn't charge me the consultation fees. As I left his office, I could see him shaking his head. I can imagine what he must be thinking :)

 

Well, the drugs worked and I am back to normal today :). However, my diets controlled now ( at least for a week). Can't have anything except curd rice at work (yuck).

 

Today, we had amazing Parathans and Egg curry for lunch. This is one combination that is rare to find at office and I was tempted to have it...and then my stomach growled...
