Day Sixty-Five- Home Sick, No Workout

From yesterday to today, my body was really telling me something. Throughout the day yesterday, and into this morning, my body was going into shutdown mode. Looking back on the past few weeks, I was having small moments of being sick, that my body was really starting to shutdown. And it wasn't until yesterday evening when I got that message.

So on yesterday's blog, I mentioned that I was getting sick. Well later that night, it got worse & worse. Our family treat illness in a more holistic manner, but last night, I had to give in and take some NyQuil and zonked out!!!

But when I woke up this morning, my throat was killing me. It felt like I swallowed an entire porcupine with it's quills sticking out. And every time I would move, my joints were killing me. So there was definitely no way I was going to make it to the gym. I spent the entire day in bed, with the vaporizer going, and downing as much water as possible. By the end of the day, I was feeling almost as normal as before, so I am hoping that one more night of rest, I will be fully functioning in the morning.

Here is my food journal entry for today:

Breakfast- 8:30 am
Toast
Coffee

Lunch- 12:30 pm
Tomato Soup
Chicken Strips (4)
Water (2)

Dinner- 6:45 pm
1/2 bowl of wonton soup
1/2 General Tso's Chicken w/ white rice
Water (2)

Hopefully tomorrow I will make it to the gym and do my cardio. I am already needing to get back to it so I don't feel like crap. Talk to everyone later!
