Slightly Sick (and Head Hunger)

Apparently I am stuck in the Ss lately when it comes to blog titles. :-)

I am slightly sick. It is the first time I’ve been sick since I had my weight-loss surgery. And even then, it isn’t a serious sickness yet.

I have a slight tickle in my throat that comes and goes. I notice it most in the morning. The big thing is that I have a serious mucus problem and have been going through the tissues to try to keep my breathing passages clear. I am hoping it doesn’t get worse than it is.

I have not been exercising like I had been, and I know part of it is because I don’t have the energy. I am still exercising, but I really have to talk myself into it. Plus, I am choosing “easier” options like walking instead of Zumba.

The big thing is that I want something to eat, but I don’t know what I want to eat. I want something different. I am tired of my usual fare, but I can’t figure out what I want to eat. Everything that isn’t my usual fare is high in calories or carbs. Today, I had TWO cookies. Not at the same time, but I had two of them. That’s the first time I’ve had two cookies in a very long time. The first one was good, which is why I had the second one later. Then I logged them in, and I realized they were not worth the 300 plus calories not to mention the excess sugar and carbs. Those two cookies had more carbs than I normally eat in a day — almost twice as much.

I used to get this feeling of wanting something to eat before my surgery. I’m not hungry. I just want…something. I don’t know what. It leads to bad choices. I suspect it has to do with me being sick.
