I am not feeling well and just don't feel like eating much. So far, I am going to be way under calories for today. I am not throwing up just don't feel like eating. I think I may have a sinus infection and getting an ear infection. I will be seeing the doctor but haven't yet. I also don't feel like any exercise. Ideas on what to eat or does it matter since this is not "normal" for me?

    Just listen to your body. If you don't feel like eating, don't. Generally, if I've got a cold I'll eat at maintenance or a little above (I won't diet if I'm sick), but I tend to be hungry when I'm sick.

    Fluids, broths, Gatorade, ginger ale, teas. Maybe some toast and jelly too. Feel better!
