Hello All,

So I found out yesterday I have strep throat, and I haven't been able to exercise since Monday. I've been eating okay, but it's really hard to stay under my calories when I don't exercise. When I went to the doctor yesterday I had gained a pound, but I'm trying not to beat myself up over it. The next day I'll probably be able to exercise is Monday, if I'm feeling better. Have any of you run into this problem? Any motivation or support to get back into the exercise/diet thing would be great!

Thanks :flowerforyou:

    I usually LOVE being sick cause I don't eat that much or that bad and I lose weight!
