Ok, wondering if any of you exercise when you came down with cold/flu (happening to me this weekend! blargh!!!) My intuitive hunch for me is "No you idiot! you need bedrest pronto!" but my calorie-counting, exercise-crazed side is giving me guilt for just lying and puttering about for 4 days straight so far. If you're on a reduced-exercise regimen during sickness, what does it entail?
And I hope to resume normal diet/exercise habit soon after I recover, do y'all just go straight back on your regular regimen or ease your way back in? (I rarely get ill - so never had to think about stuff like this before.) Thanks!
PS I will say my diet has been better (calorie-wise) since I've been ill
, lots of breads and soups and juices -- but can't wait to dive back into the raw fruits & veggies, which has been making my stomach queasy since I got sick.
