    I woke up at 345 am puking my guts out. It's been about an hour since the last pukage so I'm assuming it was just a 12-hour virus. I still feel queezy though.
    AUTigers is on his way home and is gonna pick me up something to eat from the store.
    Definitely want Sprite. What food do you like after you've had a stomach bug?

    BTW, threw up last night's meal, which was chicken fingers. Chicken noodle soup is not an option. Any other kind of soup recommendations?

    Ginger ale or 7-Up is better than Sprite, IMO. I think Sprite is too sweet for best stomach setting.

    Try a simple vegetable soup, even vegetable broth, with a little bit of cooked rice mixed in. Feel better soon.

    had the same thing happen to me 2 days ago. except I think I had it a little worse than you.

    I got a fruit smoothie and subway (roasted chicken with green peppers, lettuce, pickles) try to keep it light, but still healthy at the same time. By the sounds of it, chicken is not an option at all, so try to stick with some fresh fruit and veggies, maybe some pasta later on tonite (fettucini always seems light on the stomach to me).

    Ramen or wonton soup and a soda are what I usually try. Easy on stomach, yet favorites.

    gingerale and gatorade, toast, beef broth (if you absolutely can't do chicken). Need sodium...gatorade has some but you need more, best way for that is soup.

    lol @ "12-hour virus", it's called food poisoning.

    12-hour/24-hour bug is easily the most successful euphemism ever invented, you rarely hear people talking about the food poisoning they had but you hear a lot about 24-hr viruses, vwp.
