I've been sick for about a month now and have hardly made it to the gym at all. I've got a horrible horrible head cold AFTER having a bout with the flu, and I can't breathe much without a hacking cough. I've got gunk in my head and throat that makes it hard to breathe.

When I was feeling a bit better before the head cold I resumed my normal gymming, but then I came down with another illness! Ugh. My weight loss has not stalled, thanks to my vigilant calorie counting, but I just feel kinda flabby and pathetic due to my lack of gym trips. I wanted to get nice arms for my wedding in 2 months but I feel like my progress has just gone kaput.

Sorry for being so whiny. I'm just ugh.

At 5'7 and 135 lbs, you feel flabby & pathetic?

I guess that makes me a lard wagon.

It's more that I was making progress and doing really well and now being sick has undone a lot of it...

I'm sorry! I definately know how that feels! I was back on the workout wagon for all of March. It felt soooooooooo good! Then my HR got to 217 and I started having chest pains. Now I am in what feels like a perpetual holding pattern until I have a stress test on the 12th. No working out until then, besides just leisurely walking.

Just know that you will feel better, and you will get back!!

Thank you girl! I hope your stress test goes well and that everything is okay.

Sorry for being so whiny - didn't mean to get snarked at. I am just so frustrated!

Feel better soon
