I must admit, there are better ways to lose weight than to have the flu (or whatever it is) for four days. Well, more comfortable ways, at least.
Looking on the bright side, I think I am making progress through all the symptoms -- I at least don't have a fever any more. Other things trouble me, though, not the least of which is whether or not to eat. Not eating usually makes me feel sick when I am well, but these days I am finding that I tend to feel worse if I do eat, so I guess I'll just keep on holding back until I'm certain. At this rate, I shall have reached my 10% weight loss goal easily by my Thursday weigh-in. Hopefully I will have the strength to go weigh in!
Aside from the discomfort and the general ickiness of the weakness I'm feeling, I'm in good spirits. When you don't feel like doing much more than sleeping, reading and doodling about on the laptop, then it's a lot easier to be "allowed" to do such things to the heart's content. ;-) I think I may attempt some laundry today, but everything else will be assigned to the DH and the DS while I give orders from my sickbed.
While I have a bit more free time because of not being able to do other things, I shall try to get caught up on the fics I have been meaning to read.
In between napping, of course. ;-)

I spent the weekend reading and wound up straining my eyes. I just can't put a good book down, even if it hurts!
Life is not fair, sometimes! :-P
