Getting food poisoning while on vacation should be illegal.
I’m fine, but poor J has been feeling like death wishing he was dead (his words) since Thursday afternoon. Poor man. I guess having an allergy that prevents me from eating ALL the food has its advantages…
Needless to say, that definitely threw a wrench into some of our plans, but J seems to be feeling better and we’ve still got 1.5 days left before heading back home so we’re going to try to take in as much as we can…
I hope you guys are doing well, and I’ll talk to you soon! π

Jessie
Another great roundup of links. I hadn’t seen the pancake/crepe recipe, so I’m definitely going to head that way now.
Glad you and J have been having a fantastic time. Isn’t it so lovely to get away w/ your man for a few days? Especially when your living a LD relationship!
Yesterday > Roxy, Cleaned & hung out a friend and her child
Today> Blog, Lunch w/ a friend, and baking
Amy @ Long Drive Journey
Oh noooooo!! All of your pictures were making it seem like you were in dream land! SO sorry to hear about the food poisoning. Glad it’s not you, but NOT glad it’s J, and that your trip has been messed up. Enjoy those last days (probably last day, singular, now)!
Amy @ Long Drive Journey
Whoops, and thank you for the link love!!
Cassie
I’ve never had food poisoning that I’m aware of… I’m so terrified of getting it though!
Yesterday: run in downtown savannah, went to the beach, went out in savannah!
Today: run on the beach, saw my fam, came home from savannah (boo)
Amanda @ .running with spoons.
You and me both. After seeing what happened to him, I was seriously afraid to eat anything that wasn’t packaged π―
Megan @ The Skinny-Life
Chocolate peanut butter hummus? I’m there!!!
Natalie Staeckeler
I hope all is going well! <3
Chelsea @ Chelsea's Healthy Kitchen
I don’t think I’ve ever had really bad food poisoning, but I remember one time when I went to Cuba I didn’t feel so hot for a few days… I hope J feels better soon!
Yesterday I went grocery shopping, made glo bars from Oh She Glows’ cookbook, and cooked dinner for me and John. Today I made breakfast for me, John, and my parents, watched Breaking Bad, and did a solo spin workout at the gym.
Ashley
noooo! We got food poisoning on the tail end of our trip to the Dominican Republic and it was awful. It was one of those cheap, all-inclusive resorts. Never going back there! Sometimes that will happen when traveling though, hope you guys get better fast!
Krista @ Tiny n Fit
Oh no! I hope I feels better soon! I’ve had the stomach flu and food poisoning before. You really do wish for death π it’s awful! Have fun enjoying Hawaii!
Arman @ thebigmansworld
Can you please remind me to tell you about the ads that pop up when I go on spoons? I would text but clearly wifi free :p
I actually want to try Alexis sweet hummus but me and legumes = pregnant man. Go go chasing waterfalls, please stick to te rivers and the lakes… That’s all I know. Bet mr and mrs spoon are missing you for dinner tonight π
Amanda @ .running with spoons.
Or maybe they’re happy to not have me looting their kitchen π
Ashley @ My Food N Fitness Diaries
Oh no! Poor J. I know how terrible food poisoning is, and I don’t wish it on anyone! Glad he seems to be feeling better… Hopefully that continues! xoxo
Tiffany
Oh no! Food poisioning is the worst, even more so on a tropical vacation! I’ve had it a couple times before and luckily, it’s been awhile for me. My bf had it a few weeks ago and seeing how it hit him, wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy.
lindsay
uh oh, is it mac nut? are you allergic? Hope you can soak up some good time left anyway!
Meghan@CleanEatsFastFeets
Food poisoning is such a bummer. Poor J. Try to force feed him fluids and ginger, since the latter should help calm his stomach.
I loved all the blog links. Good stuff, and while I agree with the WHO decision to cut sugar, I wish they’d really distinguish between the types of sugars. For example, there’s a big difference between High fructose corn syrup and honey. It also makes me wonder if the food industry will just rebound with a bunch of sugar free food, which will be a bunch of synthetic substitutes, which can actually be worse.
Amanda @ .running with spoons.
I do hate how they lump things like honey and maple syrup i there with other sugars… And I really hope they stay away from the fake stuff. There’s enough research out there saying that artificial sweeteners definitely aren’t the way to go. We can only hope people are paying attention…
Nicole @ FruitnFitness
Oh I hope J feels better soon! I have had food poisoning and it really is the worst. I hated that they couldn’t give my anything cause the doctors really did want me to just get it all out. Enjoy the rest of your time in the sun.
Lauren
“Get to Zee Choppa!” π My Arnold Schwarzenegger impression at its finest. Lol I hope you have a great time on your helicopter ride today and my fingers are crossed for J to feel better. I have gotten sick before on vacations and its the WORST. I mean, he kinda “lives there” but it’s still terrible to be in a vacation mindset with someone sick!
Sam @ Better With Sprinkles
Ugh, I hope J feels better soon! Getting food poisoning is always terrible, but on vacation? Laaame. I’ve never had it myself (knock on wood) but I remember my brother getting it from Pizza Pizza once…needless to say, I don’t think I’ve eaten there since.
Annnd I need to check out that Chocolate Peanut Butter Hummus recipe – I was thinking about making some dessert hummus next weekend.
Yesterday: went out for schwarma and froyo, groceries, make homemade peanut butter.
Today: dog park, vacuuming…and I think I want to watch Tangled today.
Heather @ The Soulful Spoon
Hey love! So glad you’re having a good time in Hawaii!:) I hope J feels better soon:) These are great links to check out, thanks for sharing and have a fabulous rest of your trip!:)
Holly @ EatGreatBEGreat
Oh gosh, poor J! Food poisoning is so awful! Glad he’s on the mend and you guys can, hopefully, enjoy the last few days of vacation!
Thanks for the link-love! π
Hollie
That stinks he is feeling sick now. Hopefully he feels better soon!
I really enjoyed this group of links you found. Especially the article about living on a 1200 calorie diet and why steady state cardio messes with your metabolism. If you eat 1200 calories for a long period of time, even if you begin upping to 1300 (still so low for anyone) you will gain weight because your body is not used too it. I only wish people realized this.
Amanda @ .running with spoons.
Me too π And I wish they would give their bodies a chance to adjust before getting scared off and jumping back into restriction.
Christine@ Apple of My Eye
Awww poor J! I agree. That definitely should be illegal. Like, prison time for the food poisoning since you guys are in freakin’ HAWAII! Too much to do to be slowed down by regurgitation (ew haha!)
Thanks for the link to my protein bars! You’re a doll π
Ms.J
OH NOOHHH!! Poor J.. what a bummer. Glad he’s doing better.
I’ve never had food poisoning but anything to do with tummy woes is a quite a misery.
Yesterday : family lunch, game of cricket, movie. Uhhh I’m pining for a good hike!
Today: lie-in, pilates, paperwork.
meredith @ The Cookie ChRUNicles
Oh no! I hope he is feeling better. That is the worst, especially away from home. I don’t know for sure that I have had true food poisoning or just the stomach virus (they are so similar that I never know if it is something I ate or I am just sick)…The worst…Three things yesterday- run, Red Mango, handle my taxes (bleh)…Three things today – very short run, clean out my closet (another bleh) and hang with my son.
Leigha @ Minougirl
Oh man, feel better J! I’ve only had food poisoning once. I had a strawberry scone from this bakery and I threw it up. I couldn’t eat scones for years! Luckily I now eat scones π
Kim @ FITsique
I have never had a sensitive stomach. and I can usually eat most anything without any troubles. BUT recently, if anyone is going to get food poisoning from something it is usually me! It stinks. Yesterday I went to the gym for an upper body workout, grocery shopped, and worked. Today: Breakfast date, gym for lower body workout, and another evening of working! And I really should try to study too π
