Not doing well. I have put on another pound. On the plus side,I have had a sickness bug!!!!! 😐. Perhaps this will help me lose weight and when i feel better get back to healthy eating . πŸ˜†

Oh no poor you! I always think secretly "oo a sickness bug, wonder what weight I'll lose!" but I haven't ever lost anything while poorly. If anything I have a bit of a gain. healthy eating goes out the window because you just need to look after yourself when you're sick. I hope you get well soon and fingers crossed for your next weigh in :)

Just an aside - possibly the reason you don't lose when you have a sickness bug could be because of something I've learned in connection with my son's type 1 diabetes - even if he is eating nothing at all when he is ill he still has to take insulin because I believe the liver starts breaking down fat and turning it into sugar so he has to counteract that
