Have a cold what to do

I have had a bad head cold for the past 4 days, and am probably a day or two from having it behind me. During this time my food intake has gone down slightly (not much) but my exercise has had to take a back seat. What should I expect in regards to what my weight will be once this cold is over? Will I still have lost some weight, or is there a chance I may end up gaining weight. just curious.

I'm no doctor, but I say let your body rest! You should still lose weight if you stick to your calorie goal that MFP suggested.0
