Hot and Healthy — Thriving Through Menopause One Pound at a Time — Day 23 to Day 30 (3/11/24)
I’ve been sick. Sunday night we brought back the moped, Monday morning I was down and out. Today is Monday, Day 30 and I should have done a weigh in but did not for various reasons. One being that the results will be skewed. When your throat hurts, you don’t eat, and I don’t want to get excited about a number that is not real. Let life get back to normal and I’ll weigh in next Friday.
It’s fat I am fighting, not water weight.
I am still keeping a log on my Loseit! App, but have not been wearing the Fitbit because it annoys me, like everything else when I am sick.
Mostly all I am taking in is Throat Comfort teas and soup. I made my own chicken noodle, and it is delicious with MUCH less salt than store brands.
There is no exercise planned for today as I do not think I can handle it. My runny nose and cough would create too many disruptions for anything to be worth it.
I’ll workout when I can breathe again. No, this was not covid nor RSV, it’s just a cold but ever since I was a kid, whenever I had the simplest of colds, I got a cough that would last…and last. The doctors at the time always said bronchitis.
