What do you eat when you don't feel well?

Came down sick last night and am trying to think of what I could eat to use my calories up that will sit okay in a raw stomach. Any ideas.

    Soup :)
  • I've been feeling under the weather, as well. Today, I just ate soup and was SUPER hungry come 10-11PM. I would suggest you try to eat something of substance during the day so you don't feel the need to eat a whole meal at a weird hour... or maybe make that soup hearty. I just went with a light minestrone. In hindsight, a thick potato and leek may have been a better option. Or a standard chicken noodle.

    and kind of broth based soup, toast,crackers, hot tea, ect and for me LOTS of Orange Juice.. I rarely get sick so when I do I don't really watch the calories all that much, I just eat what I feel is gonna make me feel better the fastest. And being under for a couple days really won't hurt.

    Pretzels & cranberry or Apple juice always help my tummy cause that's what my mom always gave me when sick. Not as salty as soup.
    Or coconut water is good.
    Scrambled eggs with toast
