Digestive Issues

I wasn't sure where to put this, and I'm going to start out by saying this is a little bit of TMI for some.

So I've been dieting and exercising for the past 2 weeks, and I've lost nearly 6 pounds. However the last two days I've been experiencing some rather painful stomach cramps as well as diarrhea. I'm not sure if it's something in my diet or what? It burns a ton, in my stomach and erm, out of it.

Any ideas based on my food diary? I thought perhaps the salad, I did eat like 3 bowls of it with vinegar and oil.

    Possibly the fruit juice, it is quite rich, and I have heard it said that it can upset stomachs.

    ..I think having to much fiber is part of the issue, lol. Well hopefully it's just some passing digestive thing. I surely hope it is.

    Possible food poisoning? I see you had Arby's the other day. Did it start after that meal? (Am not knocking on Arby's here, but contamination is possible.) Most everything else you've eaten I assume as been home made. Undercooked eggs or possible contamination at home?

    Anything new in your diet that could be a potential allergen?
