Default Sick...help please!

Hi everyone,

I was on extended induction for 3 weeks and lost 11 pounds and then went off the wagon and ate carbs for a couple of days, I didnt go over-board and managed to not gain any weight back! thankfully!

I then strarted induction again about a weeks ago and after 2 days I got the flu, I assumed this was the induction flu which i hadn't caught the first time around. However, I was so wrong! I continued induction but only got worse wtih flu, fever, throwing up, dizzzy spells and my asthma played up. So I've been like this for the past 5 days now and as per doctors orders have been eating carbs mainly multi-grain bread with vegemite and butter and ive been drinking tea which seems to sooth my throat.

I want to start induction again tomorrow, im slowly getting better, however I'm finding the thought of this very difficult, I again have not gained back anything that I have lost. My throat is still extremely sore. Can anyone recommend and soup reciepes or more importantly i think i just need some motivation!

Sorry to be a bit of a poor sport, i just hate that i became so sick!

Thank you all,

Tiana
