Hey Guys,

I have been cutting down my food and exercising at least 4 times a week for about a month now! However I have only just started to track my calories.

This week I have felt a flu coming on and today it has come out, I have brought some hall throat sweets to help, although I have just looked at the packet and they seem to be reasonably high in calories - not impressed!!! :(

Do I count these in within my daily log?

Thanks!

    Ah ok! I guess it will make we wary on how many I eat!

    I'll look into that one, I'm normally not to bad, however everyone in my household has this flu so there's no getting away!

    Thanks for your response!

    Ice chips can help sooth a sore throat with less cals. :wink:

    You can also add a little cayenne pepper to soups and such. It aids in healing with negligible calories.
