Ugh when I'm sick all I want is to EAT.

Today I've had tons of popcorn, peanut m&ms, oatmeal, ghiradelli peppermint squares, and a burrito... I want cinnamon rolls and cookies!! I'm scared to gain weight :( I just sleep all day. Totally sedentary. This is so frustrating. I was just getting happy with my body...

    I know the feeling. Try to have more fluids and less junk food. You'll heal better by eating nutritious things. I read an explanation of why, scientifically, chicken soup aids in healing. Of course I forgot the explanation, but the fact remains it really does help. And fruits with vitamin C and what not. The oatmeal is fine, popcorn isn't *that* bad.
