I've been sick for 5 days..

and I have lost 5 pounds!!! So frustrating. I have been trying to eat as often as possible, but it is hard when I cant breathe or stop coughing. I guess now that the cold is letting up I need to make sure I beef up my nutrition. Who knew there would be a time in my life when I was bummed about weight loss. This is the second cold in a month and a half. How have you ladies been doing with your colds?

I have been sick for a week and a half now. Right now I just have a lingering cough but the fits are getting annoying. Sleep has been hard to come by because of it.

I've been sick for 5 days too, but have not lost any weight!  Guess that's because the only thing that really appeals is ice cream, and lots of it!  (Though, yes, I'm doing just fine eating other things too.)  Gave in and had a Shamrock Shake yesterday too!!

I am on day 7 of a really nasty cold. They aren't kidding about getting sicker and staying sicker longer during pregnancy. DH got the same cold and was in bed for 2 days and his congestion is almost gone. I was in bed for 5 days (including my entire 3 day weekend) and am still hacking like crazy and it's my 3rd day back at the office.

typically i have a pretty freakishly strong immune system.  being a teacher has really built up a good one for me.  but i had a cold not too long ago that lasted a solid week.  can't remember the last time that happened.

I've been sick 4 times this season and its been awful.  No weight lose but enough fluid to create a river.
