Sounds like the stomach flu to me. Unfortunately protein probably wont be the best thing for a sensitive stomach. I would eat very small meals very frequently. Maybe some deli meat, cheese and an apple for an example of a meal. Good luck with it man!

You have to let your body fight off what ever is wrong with you bro. I say drink a lot of water, and get as much fruit in you, and fresh vegetable juices as you can. If you do have the stomach flu or food poisoning do not eat anything for 24 hours you will only aid the bacteria/virus. If anything i would be drinking water and apple cidar vinegar, b/c it has been shown to be anti bacterial. Just 2 TBSP in a small glass of water 3 times a day. If your stomach is bugging you do not eat for 24 hours like i said. the only thing you consume is lots of water and the apple cidar vinegar 3 times daily.

The vinegar is a little harsh, but no worse than taking a shot at a bar on the weekend, just a little bit more sour.

When you do get back to eating, eat dry foods. Baked potatoes, crackers, mabye some fish b/c it is light. i would wait a day to get back to eating regular meals then i would only have 3 or 4. then 2 days after the fast go ahead and get back to your diet. Thats what i did and it worked well. When your able to eat regularly again and you plan on going to the gym the next day just carb up. add like 20 extra carbs to each of your meals. you will be good to go.

God Bless

Second that. Try to stay hydrated as well. Drink small amouts of water the whole day. I dunno if your stamag can handle milk but thats a great way to get some protein as well. When I'm sick I'll eat brinta its something like oats with milk.

Wait till it passes, and then get back to normal. Theres not much else you can do that would really make a difference in the meantime.
