So last night I ate dinner around seven and it was yummy. Last night I woke up at three and ran to the bathroom and threw up everything that I had for dinner. There was nothing left in my stomache after that. So my question is, do I count those calories from dinner even though I threw them up?

    I would count them.. your body still absorbed most of what it was going to take in.. Surely by that time most of what was left over was waste

    I'm so sorry that you aren't feeling well. I would say the calories still count.

    Yes, those calories count. Even if you throw up within a short while (like bulimics do) some of those calories still get absorbed, that's why bulimics can't lose weight. So surely by that amount of time, you absorbed a lot of those calories. Also, that was yesterday, the day is over now so I guess it doesn't even matter anymore. Hope you are not sick!
