Came down with a cold - struggling


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

 

I am on day 12 and everything was going well. I came down with a cold the past couple of days and today I am dying. I didn't eat that much yesterday and today I haven't really eaten at all because I feel like I'm going to throw up. Does anyone have any suggestions of easy put together meals? I was sipping on bone broth yesterday and today which seems to be fine, but today I feel worse and my stomach is all queasy. Plus I'm so sick of cooking and need to run to the grocery store to purchase more protein, which I don't know if I have the time or energy to do so after work. This may just be me looking for sympathy and wanting to vent cause I'm stuck at work and feel like crap haha but any suggestions would be amazing! 

 

 

Thanks!

Amy

Try some bland starchy veggies and eat what you can stomach. For me, and easy comfort food is chicken, bone broth and veggies set to simmer for a bit and then I'll eat that (add zoodles if you want chicken noodle type soup). Most of that I can easily make if I buy already chopped veggies and compliant canned chicken. It's also a fairly easy way to get protein and veggies (you can add a fat too)

It's a bummer you aren't feeling well. Keep trying to eat what you can :)

Thanks for the advice! I think that sounds like a good idea. Being sick is hard because I want to go back to my easy comfort food, which is basically nachos hahaha

Maybe try a supplement? Chamomile tea always helps me when I'm sick, too. Maybe your body is trying to tell you to take a day off!  :)

Tea is always a good idea! I did take work off yesterday, but I'm out of PTO days so today I had to drag my butt in.... hahah
