    I second eating at maintenance, your body needs fuel to help you fight off whatever you're coming down with, a couple of days/week at maintenance isn't going to do you too much damage in the long run.

    Also get your fluids up, being sick often leaves you feeling dehydrated.

    If you are up to it a walk in some fresh air will probably do you good (I always like a walk on the beach when I am feeling bleurgh, sea air is meant to be pretty good for the respiratory system, always makes me feel better).

    @Noel_57 is on a roll tonight.

    If I'm feeling poorly, then I'm not going to worry too much about staying at a deficit, I'll try and stay within maintenance at least.

    Great excuse for soup and grilled cheese sandwich (for me anyway)! Feel better soon.
