    I get the 'you're actually hungry, so lets make you SUPER nauseous so you totally don't know if this meal is going to make you feel better or vomit all over the place' kinda nausea. Neato!
    Since I have gotten older, throwing up in my mouth is a thing. I was at an off leash park and a large dog drooled on my arm. I *tried* to be cool about it, but when I went to wipe it off, I got instant nausea and threw up in my mouth. Anything can trigger it, motion, offending smells, concern (like going into large box stores). Not gonna lie. It annoys me a lot, so you must be a magical human for being able to cope so well! 💜

      Tanya Van Stone I relate to what you said so much! I have a very strong sense of smell and bad smells can trigger my nausea in an instant. And I also baby barf often. I carry a Queasy pen and peppermint beadlets with me everywhere to combat it.

    • @oflifeandstuff
      @oflifeandstuff 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I'm so glad other people get this too! I'm basically never sick, as in throwing up, but certain foods will trigger me and I'll throw up in my mouth or I'll feel an acidic burning in the back of my throat. Sometimes I wish I could throw it up, because better out than in... I'm thankful though that it's not the main symptom I deal with

      Kristin Owens it’s called Quese Ease. And it’s hard to describe but it’s kind of like those Vick’s inhalers but for nausea. You take slow deep breathes in with it held up to your nose and it helps calm you’re nausea. It helped me a lot.

    you've got illness and nausea and fatigue and everything, and you've cooked, done your hair and makeup, tidied, and filmed two videos. I'm in a bad depression cycle and I barely managed to get out of bed today. I try not to blame myself, because it's my disability that makes me a useless lump, it's not my choice and I'm doing my best, but it's hard, especially when someone who has it so much worse can do so much with a day. ugh. i know everyone says you can't compare yourself with others, but ughhhh.

      Hello my darling, please please please don't compare yourself to what I'm able to do on a day like this. This level of illness is just a manageable, normal level for me it isn't an especially bad day. On my really bad days I can't move or speak so I can't hold a camera and film- although I would like to be able to show you that too.
      I promise you're not a 'useless lump'; this dark period does not define you and you will go on to do many wonderful things. We're both trying our hardest and that is what's important. Please know that you are not alone. I'm sending you warmth and love and I hope things get brighter for you soon xxx

    Thank you so much for this video. I have lupus and deal with nausea frequently. Your message at the beginning about all that matters is you eating, doesn’t matter what it is, resonated. I have worked in nutrition, fitness, and wellness for years and used to get so stressed on sick days because I knew I wasn’t eating “right”. I have since learned to just take those days for what they are, just a day, one of many days that I am able to eat much healthier than when everything makes me sick. Thanks for the confirmation to just eat what sounds good, it is good to not feel alone.

    I've been going through a rough period with my chronic conditions for several months and I've been struggling so much with food and eating. Even the simple batch cooking I've learnt to rely on has been difficult, and accepting the need to scale back my expectations of myself and go back to pre-prepared food, particularly things I can keep in the cupboard as there's a lack of freezer space in my current living situation, is an ongoing process, let's say. The mantra of it being better to eat something than nothing is definitely a useful one!

    Words can not express how much your videos mean to me. Especially this one, this has been one of my biggest issues, and has also been worse lately. I basically couldn’t eat for a week. Basically everything that I can eat is fruit. Doctors always try to give me crap for my diet during these times when I’m literally just trying to find anything my body can keep down. Even just enough to be able to take my meds without throwing those up. Thank you ❤️

  • @shedevil50337
    @shedevil50337 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have severe M.E. & am bed bound. I eat when I am brought food. My wife is also ill &, if she's too ill to bring food, we both go hungry. As her health is deteriorating rapidly, we've lost a lot of weight & both have several nutritional deficiencies. The local council assessed us as needing 1.5 hours of care per day which they'll fund, but our last provider could no longer supply the staff after our main support assistant left. She'd been with us for 4 years & was fantastic. We knew she would leave at some point as she was working whilst doing a degree then a Masters & she got a job as an Occupational Therapist. We miss her but wish her all the best. She was a great young woman. We've been trying to find a replacement care company for almost 3 years but there's no vacancies. We've been told we can have all 10.5 hours in a single day but that's no good. We're currently advertising to employ a support assistant directly which we didn't want to do. Neither of us are well enough to do all the paperwork, but we've no option now. The care sector is poorly underfunded & badly paid. They are essential to so many sick & disabled people but the government doesn't value them.
    For nausea, can I recommend peppermint or ginger tea? Also you could rub some peppermint essential oil (mixed with a carrier of oil or neat if your skin can handle it, like mine) onto your stomach. After about 30 seconds it will start to pleasantly burn & that's when the nausea starts to go. Both the tea & the oil always help me.
    When I'm nauseous but too hungry to not eat, or even after I've vomited but need to eat, I'll have some rice added to a warmed Knorr stock pot & some water, making a broth with a bit of bite to it. That is gentle on your stomach but helps your electrolytes if you've been vomiting a lot.

    I have the same philosophy on my sick days, feed the body whatever it will accept. Eating nothing made me worse every time. My senses are on overload so less flavor and spice the better. Frozen fruit has been my new favorite for the summer. Also, electrolyte water is part of my kit now since I usually get dehydrated. I gotta try those sweet potato fries next time.

My stomach pain and nausea have been something I have struggled with my whole life, and I usually just let the nausea win and take a nap or lay down for a while and then IF I'm feeling hungry and my nausea has calmed down then just maybe I will get something in. I also like to chew on ice chips when my nausea is really bad. This seems like a much better alternative! Thanks girl 💕

    This diet also works for mental illness days! I get horrible depressive fits that last 2-3 days. It's all I can do just to get to the kitchen, let alone make something to eat. Fresh or frozen fruit doesn't require effort that I don't have. But some times I eat a bag of crisps. It doesn't matter as long as you eat something. Thank you for sharing such an intimate subject with us, even while ill.

I've been back and fore doctors, consultants, etc. I'm having no joy as they don't seem concerned as I am not losing weight. So finding someone who is suffering like me, well first of all my heart goes out to you. Secondly I now know I'm not going mad and it's not all in my head, like some people have accused me. I've had some good tips from you, keep up with the videos, wishing you well. :)

    fruit is SUCH a spectacular thing to eat when you're low on spoons/sick/having a particularly bad disability day. fruit is ready to eat with like, no prep, so when you're too ill to stand and cook, you can still put something good in your body. i'm also a big fan of cereal stirred into yogurt.

    When I feel ill fruit also helps me feel less nauseous. I have almost constant nausea, and I will definitely try the frozen grapes tricks. Thanks a million for being a charming person!

    OMG! I’ve never met anyone that struggles with stomach issues like me! Nausea, Eating, Hydration, & having several Auto-Immune illnesses is such a delicate balance to deal with. And it’s different everyday, yet similar. Intuitive Eating is an excellent description. And most people don’t realise there are so many different ways to be nauseous.

    Old American Wives tale that I've heard for home nausea treatment is Sprite and saltines (soup crackers). However, when you're disabled you kinda just have to experiment and find out what works for you! Thank you for sharing your tips and tricks with us, Jessica. Love your videos.

      Saltines really help, but are extremely dry and can be hard to eat. For sure need a drink with them.

    OBSESSED with that gorgeous 40s hair look 😍 I recently got my hair cut to your length after my hair being down to my butt long because of my chronic illness stopping me from being able to style and maintain my hair (joint problems). So now your channel has helped me find my love for my hair again ❤️

    Frozen grapes are amazing for when you have a sore throat or a sinus infection as well! It is soothing and reduces swelling. I guess ice cream or ice lollies do the same, but I prefer frozen grapes. Nicer portion sizes and its easy to just grab a few from the freezer every now and then.

    I only recently stumbled upon your channel. Somehow one of your videos for International Week of the Deaf landed in my recommended videos feed. I watched it and really enjoyed your personality so I watched several of your other video. You and your wife, Claudia, seem to be great people and are very entertaining. I subscribed to see more!

    @emilyboj 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Pickles are my number one anti-nausea food. Once I get to the I'm hungry but I may still be sick stage I usually go for starchy things like oatmeal or anything made from potatoes/sweet potatoes. And my general go-to when I'm not up to making a proper meal (but not necessarily when nauseated) is a smoothie with banana, berries and peanut butter.

    I have a chronic illness though i don’t think it’s bad enough to be considered a disability but it makes me gain weight very easily and makes me get ill very easily and for the longest time i viewed the times when i was sick as a chance to starve and lose some weight but i’ve been watching a lot of your videos and it’s very freeing to be drop dead ill and not deny myself a piece of dry toast thank you so much!!

  • @batmanfan20101
    @batmanfan20101 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you for this video! It really encourages me when I heard you say not to stress over what you eat on a sick day. Yesterday I slept about 15 out of the 24 hours. I had exhausted myself the day before trying to do too many errands. And I felt guilty because I ate cereal bars, strawberries, and a LOT of gummy bears. Hahahhaa but it's true that just making sure I eat is good enough. I shouldn't shame myself for being too tired to fix something else to eat. Oh, and seeing you take your pills encouraged me to take my vitamins today and I'd been skipping it!! Your videos are really helping me! Thank you!

    When I was at my worst and nearly everyday was a sick day, I lived mainly on eggs, toast, peanut butter, and cocoa made with dairy free milk. Some days I'd have a vegetable broth, but I remember after several days of feeling awful, I had had enough and bought a pizza. In several weeks, it was the first thing that hadn't made me rush to the loo!

    Just rewatched this and since after you made this when I'm at the worst started making sweet potato wedges. they are freaking amazing when it comes to pain nausea for me.
    Your food videos have helped me get through a really rough time with nausea and stomach problems I've been having the last few weeks.

    Your hair. Oh my god. It's so pretty I'm actually happy it's not on /my/ head. I get to see it more often if it's on somebody else's head... Sorry to hear you felt so sick today; you turned it into an interesting vlog though. PS: Love your accent when you say "body" ahahah

    I was really nauseous a few weeks ago and all I craved was carbs (I'm not usually a massive carb eater). I have a dietitian and she said that its normal for your body to want carbs when you're sick as it absorbed water in your stomach and helps prevent projectile vomiting. So go go with the sweet potato wedges! I totally agree with you RE if all you wanna eat is junk food - do it. It's probably you body telling you what you need on a cellular level.

    FOR NAUSEA: i constantly have nausea from a whole host of either my conditions or medications, and i find that anything ginger based works (including ginger beer in an absolute pinch, don’t ask - but you can do a hot ginger tea!) and you can be prescribed metoproclamide, which i currently have in my own med boxes/drawers, which is an anti-emetic that’s super effective and has always worked pretty well ime including for like heavy morphine induced nausea, 240mg+ per day dihydrocodeine induced nausea etc etc - annnd if you can’t swallow a tablet (because nausea, of course) i believe they can prescribe you oral disintegrating tablets! could potentially save you a visit to A&E if worst comes to worst! (i know it’s maybe weird that i’m back here but i haven’t seen all of your videos so i’m bouncing around because algorithm and i had to suggest, as i’ve experienced this exact problem and wanted to offer a potential remedy whilst also keeping in mind you’ve likely tried many things over the years just as i had! worth a shot though, as these things rarely go away.)

    Plain buttered toast, but vegan butter, and flat lemonade is what I tend to go for when I'm feeling nauseas. And usually something with steamed potatoes. Flat lemonade is supposed to help calm your nausea aswell.

    Try this Jessica for your nasea , fresh root ginger, bring to boil a good lump roughly chopped, allow to simmer until it gets as strong as you can tolerate and sip! It helps!! Or juice some of it and dilute in little water!

    My last bad sick day, I couldn't get anything down (not even my morning tea) most of the day. In the afternoon I was finally able to make up & sip on some chicken stock. It was great! It didn't exacerbate the nausea & it helped calm the hunger that felt like it was eating away at me.
