Why is it the saying "when it rains, it pours" happens to me? It's "that week", which is horribly painful & uncomfortable...now I've got such a head cold & sore throat that I feel like someone shoved a bag of cottonballs up my nose & sandpaper down my throat!!!
It is SO hard to watch what I eat when all I want to do is eat comfort food & sleep...not to mention I DO NOT want to exercise! UGH!
I need HELP! :sad:

    Take care of yourself and get better!

    Don't worry about what the scale says. Drink lots of fluids and get some sleep.

    When you are better, you can get right back to it.

    We all get sick. The key is it to take care of yourself.

    I have just had that kind of a week too! It sucks. I haven't worked out since Friday. Bad. I have had a couple of days where I just ate what I wanted and I have been sleeping when ever I get the chance. The good news is that I have still managed to lose 2 pounds since last week - so don't worry. Take care of yourself and your body will take care of you :o) :flowerforyou:

    Warm liquids to soothe your scratchy throat. I had the head cold thing a few days back... just got to keep going. Don't over do it - but maybe a brisk walk. I know it sounds weird but when I moved I felt less achy. (Plus I kept on the motrin.)

    Hope you feel better. ***Feel Better Vibes***

    Thanks everyone...I just had to complain...:ohwell:

    I'm tired, feel like crap & the last thing I want to do is watch what I eat & exercise....
    I'm trying to keep an eye on what I eat, but I'm taking it a bit easy on exercising...

    I read this post, responded and then the Universe cursed me... I totally got mine? WTH? It's 2 weeks early. Ridiculous. So, I didn't exercise and I ate chocolate. :(
