Oh BLESS you. Sounds like you have a stomach bug. Maybe it would be better to give your tum a rest? Your body will reject anything it doesn't like anyway! I would just eat what you fancy- be it tinned macaroni cheese or chicken soup, or fish fingers. I would eat bland, smooth stuff that is not taxing. Avoid meat and veg and fruit (harder to digest).

Don't worry too much about eating but make sure your liquid (water not gin !!!)  intake is kept up. Sip drinks almost constantly but don't bolt them as they'll just bounce straight back up. Good luck and hope you feel better soon

I was once ill like that and couldn't even keep water down, but found that fizzy soft drink was ok - somehow the carbonation settled my stomach. Not very nutritious, obviously, but as andyjevs says it's important not to get dehydrated.

Plenty of fluids - lots of water or fruit juices (for vits and minerals, proteins, etc) and if you feel up to it try and eat some soup.
