Thoughts for This Week:
This week was challenging and Odd to say the least. I didn't go to the Gym Saturday or Sunday because I had so much to do to prepare for my upcoming work trip. However I worked out 6 days leading up to that. Sunday I started to not feel well and Monday it turned into a full blown Sinus and Bronchial infection. This meant i was coughing like crazy and having trouble breathing. Needless to say my workouts came to a screeching halt....and heating healthy soon followed. I don't know about you but when I am sick I don't want to cook let alone move. I instantly went to quick and easy which was takeout and unhealthy. This is where the odd part came in...i lost 4 pounds. I'm not quite sure how or why. I don't think I was eating less.
I've been at my conference now for two days. They feed you frequently. However I am eating small portions and not stuffing myself. I was planning on working out every day while at conference, instead I'm doing good just to attend all of my sessions. I'm hoping that this illness passes sooner rather than later so that I can get back to working out.
How do you cope with working out and eating healthy when sick?
It sounds like we're all getting hit this month! I'm still working out at a slower pace than I was before I came down with the flu, but after a week of rest I'm now adding 5 minutes to my workout time each day. The only good thing I found when I was sick was that I didn't have a lot of junk in the house to begin with, so even when I threw out my rules for the week, I wasn't in as bad of a spot as I would've been at this time last year. FEEL BETTER!!!
