I've started about five posts today and deleted every single one of them.
I have a cold. My nose is like a faucet that I can't turn off. My throat is sore. My head hurts. My teeth hurt. I feel bad.
I stayed home from work. I've been fighting the desire to overeat all freaking day. So far I'm winning the battle but it's a giant struggle.
I'm trying Roxie's idea of re-wiring my brain. Just because I'm sick and feel icky it doesn't mean I have to reach for food to comfort myself. Just because I can't go to the gym doesn't mean all is lost. Most importantly, I won't die from a little hunger, even if I am sick.
My goal today is different behavior, not the same thing I've done my entire life. Feed a cold, feed a fever.
I wish it was time to go to bed.
My journey through life, as I attempt a healthy lifestyle. Both physically and mentally. I live in the Pacific Northwest, but I'm from the great state of Alaska. I'm a software engineer, and I'm nearing my retirement years. It's a beautiful day to be alive!

Oh no, Diana!!! I hope you feel better SOON!!! Hang in there, my friend! I understand that feed a cold, feed a fever mentality. My recommendation is sleep, sleep, sleep! Take care!
I'm sorry you are feeling poorly. And nothing is stopping you from going to bed. Go. Get some rest.
Rewiring is a must in this thing. That I can attest to. :)
Get better, Diana!
Just make sure you drink plenty of liquids. Feel better, my friend!
Feel better soon!
Hope you feel better really soon.
Do as Ida suggests and drink, drink, drink (hot water with a slice of lemon is good). It'll help you fight the bug, and keep something in the tummy to fight the hunger pangs.
I hope you feel better. Spring colds suck.
I hope you get to feeling better, a cold makes you feel awful. Be sure and drink alot.
Hope your surviving the day and staying in control. Hope you feel better soon.
