Jennifer- Cut yourself some slack sweetie. Your son is sick and your feeling terrible, and you have been battling a bad back! Your doing fine! First things first-- Drink tea and / or water to get better. When DH comes home, either make him cook or get you some chicken soup-- It is soothing, healthy and has some protein. Once you feel better, worry about the other stuff. Hugs and warm thoughts, Andrea

Jennifer~ You need to kick this thing in the AZZ!! Get some serious rest. I was sick all last week with a fever, sore throat and other related sinus-goo issues. I only ran once b/c the air was too cold to breath in on a sore throat! Anywho-I lost three lbs last week in spite of it all. You can still make good eating choices while you are sick~but don't beat yourself up over every little carb. Get your protein in!! I have heard that it can help in the healing process(don't know if it's true or not!) As for starting over: When you feel better~Make sure that you keep track of your intake (cals, protein, carbs, h2o) Your Dr. designed your weightloss plan so make sure that you follow whatever their instructions are. Emotionally-it's just so much earies to comply. There is no guilt or regret when you follow the plan. I know~easier said than done. I just bought a size 14 this weekend too. They are "Seven" jeans which the sales lady said run almost a size too small. WOOT WOOT!! They do beautiful things for my boo-tay!!!! Expensive, but worth the price for a kickin' tushy! Sorry that you feel so lousy, C Leigh

"sinus-goo?" Interesting term. Is that in Webster's?
