The symptoms that you describe,vomiting and pain every few seconds, correlate with food poisoning:
In this case doctors recommend these type of food to be consumed:
-low fat yogurt
-pastas
-rice
-lean meats
-bananas
-toast
-low fat diet
You need to avoid:
-carbonated drinks
-juices that contain a lot of sugar
-caffeinated drinks
-candy and chocolate
-alcohol
Usually food poisoning has another symptom and it is diarrhea (loose stools)
In this case it is important to stay hydrated and we recommend:
-Sports drinks that contain electrolytes are the best way to prevent dehydration during this time

Usually the symptoms will persist from 2 to 3 days,but it is important to stay hydrated.
