i am having an impossible time eating after flue
I been sick with 103.7 fever , cough, etc. I got back on track with the vitamins relatively easily, but when it comes to food, i just dont care for it. I am trying with the protein shakes, but at most i have been getting up to 70 grams of protein, i feel like i had to start all over again and i have no idea why it became so difficult. All my fluids are good, all i do is drink warm tea etc, but i just do not want to eat anything, i force the shakes down just to get something in.
How concerned should i be? Will this resolve itself when i feel better, will my appettite return? I am increasing my protein shake intake, i am trying to eat Something, cheese, yogurt, whatever just to get back into eating but i dont want to. I hope within 2 weeks to work my way back up to 100+ grams of protein, but i dont know how worried i should be currently.

I think you're approaching this correctly. Don't push and I hope you'll be back to normal soon.

I tend to get this way too now. I've been struggling with a poor appetite for a few days now, as I have a rotten chest cold. As long as you're getting in some protein shakes and your fluids (most important!) you'll be fine like this for a few days.
