Dear Diary,

I feel like shit. Woke up this morning sick as a dog. Have the runs, have taken some immodium. One minute I’m hot, the next freezing cold. I feel as if I’m going to faint any minute and I feel as if I’m gonna be sick.

Not nice. To be honest, I couldn’t eat today even if I wanted to. If I eat something I know I’m gonna be sick – and not by choice! It’s one thing making yourself sick, another being ill and sick. Urgh.

Have only lost 100 grams since yesterday. But think that’s to do with me being ill and having an upset stomach.

I’m going out with some friends today. Part of me wants to cancel, but part of me doesn’t. Dpitt and Schneider are coming round, we’re gonna go to the movies. If I cancel I doubt I’ll see them again until Christmas. Their parents are really strict. They have a 6pm curfew (Schneider is 17 and Dpitt is 20). They always have to ask permission to go out. They’re not allowed jobs. They’re completely dependant on their parents for money. Their parents choose what subjects they take at school and at uni. They’re basically have no control over their own lives. They practically had to beg to be allowed out today, and the parents only told them this morning they could go. The parents think they’re going into town, if they knew they were coming over to mine they wouldn’t let them out (God forbid they have friends that are girls!).

So if I cancel, I doubt I’ll see them again for ages.

I feel like shit.
