    don't stress, it will make you feel worse! When i'm sick i crave comfort foods. This is only temporary & hopefully soon you'll be able to get back to eating right. Try to drink lot's of fluids :drinker: :drinker:
    Get well soon:flowerforyou:

    My mom takes a tablespoon of vinegar for her throat. Tea with lemon and honey, juice, eat fibrous fruits and veggies (warm sweet potatoes with honey is very soothing and well as tomato soup). Try to eat some protein (warm peanut butter sandwich)

    Hope you feel better.

    Try to not give in to emotional eating by filling up on "crappy foods." If you are feeling sick, your body really needs to be nourished with healthy options. Try some low sodium broth, reduced sugar applesauce, hot tea, etc. You'll come through this; just don't feel defeated! While taking care of everyone else...don't forget to take care of yourself!

    If you have a Costco near you go get a batch of their rotisserie chicken noodle soup! Delicious, nutrious and good for illness!

    How about going to a Doctor.

    As a lifelong asthamatic there are a lot of things I'll let slide and take care of at home...but bronchitis and pnuemonia are not one of them.
