Thanks - Im doing okay - I ache and my sinus's are full but my throat is feeling a bit better - hopefully I aint gonna come down with the full blown bug!
Make sure you eat enough to keep your defenses up while you are ill. Try that chicken soup and some hot tea with lemon & honey - to try to open up you sinuses and sooth that sore throat. As I told Ranae - peppermint tea is also good soothing when you have a cold. It helps clear up congestion.
Hope you get to feeling better soon.
Well the good news is Elizabeth slept all night (and is still sleeping) She has not moved from the position she was in when I went to bed last night - thje bad news is I woke with a fever, head cold and sore throat and feeling horrible.... The really good news is I dropped 1.8lbs this morning - thats 2.6lbs in the last 7 days so Im happy about that.
Thank you all for your love and support - this is a great communty :) x
Sorry about your little girl. I hope now that you have a diagnosis, she can be on the mend soon - and that you both will get some much needed rest.
Keep us posted.
So sorry for your poor baby. Hopefully, they were able to give her med and she will bounce back soon. It's tough when our little ones are sick, but hang in there.
We ended up in emergency room - she has a severe case of tonsilitus - not a severe chest infection...doctors hey!!
When I am tempted like this, I give in to eating "Healthy" and "Lower Calorie" foods. Like an apple, 100-calorie bags of popcorn, a huge salad with a small amount of dressing, vegetables - cooked or fresh.
Sometimes I am not able to control the stress of it, so I elect to make better choices.
Hope Elizabeth is on the mend quickly .. ((Hugs))
Try some of the Utube videos; turn on the radio and dance, etc.
Well I got through the night without eating anything though I did have several extra glases of water to stop me picking at food.
My poor baby (she is 4) is in bed witha flu like virus- she has been sick, aches all over, no energy, high temp - first tiem ever she has stayed in bed - she is nomally such a trooper so I know she feels really low.
Means I cant go to the gym, or do my daily 3.5mile walking (to and from school).
I have done my ijump, crunches, weights and leg stretches this morning, now need to work out how to burn off a few more calories while stuck in teh house and nursing my little one....
Thanks- am doing that as we speak - purely as a precaution so I dont think every time my mouth waters it is a precurser to being sick....my poor baby was sick all over me....all over herself and all in my bed... Im hoping it is related to the fever and cough she has and not a sickness bug - as if it is a bug within 24 hours Im sure to start being sick too :(
if ya have gum chew it....lol thats all i'll say
