Skinny Me will still get sick...unfortunately

For the past 3 days I've been experience what shall hereby be called, "Revenge of the Shrimp."

Good news: I've lost 9 pounds.
Bad news: Once I finally eat again, I'll probably gain it all back.

However, this made me think about the choices I made while I was sick. Reality check: When 90% of what you're eating is immediately expelled from your body, it's okay to eat sugared jello. In fact, it's really important to eat things that will ensure you don't get dehydrated. So here's my official list of things to eat when recovering from food-borne illness:
Broth
Green Jello (yes. something is magical in the green one)
Saltines
Diet Ginger Ale
Fruit Juices
Oatmeal
Toast
Applesauce
Bananas

Things to avoid:
Dairy
High fiber foods
High fat foods
High sugar foods (except jello, again, it's magical)
