So...I've been fighting a mean nasty flu like cold for the last week...I can't exercise!!! Everytime I get on my treadmill 2 minutes into my much needed work out, I start coughing uncontrollably!!! I NEED to work out...my weightloss has come to a halt majorly...I'm afraid to weigh in, I probably gained. I've been trying to cut back on my calorie intake to make up for it....but I don't think its working! Just needed to vent I guess, thanks for listening. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears!!!

    I totally understand!!!!

    I am barely getting over a cold and I HATED working out....but I kinda forced the issue...not as hard as usual but I did make sure I worked out at least 3 times a week.

    Just be sure to log in everything you eat while you can't workout and make sure you don't go over your calories and you should be fine. Hope you're back to being healthy soon!
