MaryEtta Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I needed to meet a friend for lunch out today. First time I've eaten something I didn't shop for and prepare myself in 21 days. It did not go well. I researched in advanced. Ordered a salad, no meat because theyre out of carnitas, no cooked veggies, only raw veggies because I read about the rice bran oil. Had mild and medium salsa and guac. I brought my own chicken. I could tell within about 20 minutes, while I was still eating that something didn't agree with me. I stopped eating. Forgive me for being graphic, but 10 minutes after we left, I found myself standing next to my car throwing it all up. I stopped and got some coconut water and am feeling better, but not great, but I can't figure out what happened. I really was trying to remain compliant and clearly my body didn't like something. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFChris Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Maybe something in the salsa was spoiled? I'm thinking you got sick from spoiled food vs. off-plan food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators ladyshanny Posted June 23, 2015 Administrators Share Posted June 23, 2015 A less dramatic reaction would have had me supposing that some restaurants put sulphites on their vegetables as a preservative, I've heard of unsettled, upset tummy from that but not outright parking lot vomitting. I'd go with Chris, you might've been food poisoned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryEtta Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share Posted June 24, 2015 Thanks yall. I guess I was missing the obvious lol. I was so worried that I had gone off track. Thanks to these forums I was able to get suggestions on how to bounce back without going off and am MUCH better today. Coconut water, broth, bananas and scrambled eggs were all on the menu yesterday. I didn't quite have 3 real meals, but I have to imagine that's allowed in this circumstance. Now onto day 22!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators ultrarunnergirl Posted June 24, 2015 Moderators Share Posted June 24, 2015 It's a mystery. In general, food poisoning is not quick to rear its head. The most common food poisoning culprits take much longer to get you sick - sometimes days. There are few that bring on symptoms more quickly, but it is just as likely you got food poisoning from something you ate the day before or up to 3 days before.
