The Common Cold Puts Everything on Hold
Sunday, Monday, today, and probably tomorrow have been spent sick in bed.
Not the kind of flu sickness where you lose your appetite. I have had a blasted cold in my nose/sinus area and suspect it is not leaving before the week is over.
This is SO frustrating. I was doing so well, exercising everyday and eating on plan.
Now, I am unable to exercise and all I want to eat are carbs and sugar (normally I don't want this sort of food at all, the medicine must make me crave sugars). And I have to eat frequently, or else the medicine makes me nauseous.
I just need to do a little complaining.
I am keeping control of my calories, counting and limiting them to 1500 - which is approx. 300 more than normal days and without exercise. I'm just SO hungry. Bleh - I'm hoping that will allow me to maintain and not gain too much until this stinking cold is over with! I feel I could easily woof down 3000 calories of cookies at this point.
What is going on with my appetite?
On a more positive note, I have had plenty of time to catch up on all the latest 3FC conversations!
