Day 4 - not a great start

Well, I'm back from a hellish trip to India, and do still have some major Delhi-belly.   Have only been able to keep down / eat less than 1/3 my daily food.  For example:

Day 1 - (April 15: Friday).  Nothing eaten (that stayed down).   4-6 glasses of water / tonic water.
Day 2 - (April 16: Saturday).  AM:  Managed 1/3 piece of french toast, small bowl of yogurt.  PM:  a bowl of muligatawny soup and 1 dinner roll.  3 bottles of water, 2 ginger ales.  Totally dehydrated and everything really passing through me.
Day 3 - (April 17:  Sunday).  AM:  3 small bites of fruit, 1/2 container yogurt, a few bites of vegetables.  PM:  (hunger finally arrives)  3/4 burger,  1/2 fries.    numerous glasses of water and a coke.
Day 4 - (April 18: Monday).  AM:  1/2 bowl oatmeal cereal with skim milk.  PM:  I manage to get down a 6-inch turkey sub from subway - oil and vinegar dressing.
End of day - stomach still aching, digestive tract still somewhat rebelling, but I'm keeping the food down.

As for the workout:
Day 1 - missed
Day 2 - started doing some push-ups, but in weakened state, did 3 before ready to pass out.
Day 3 - began the jumprope routine.   Quickly realizing that this is the totally wrong way to get into a good routine.  I need to have 'some' energy to do this.
Day 4 - although feeling better, the jumprope is already killing me.  I'm pretty sure that I'll need to be better in order to do the full set the whole way through.

AND NOW, off to Japan for another business trip.  This time, with jumprope in hand!
