Sick

It seems like every round of Whole30 comes with one stand-out challenge. The first round was just getting through the first round. During round 2, it was my birthday. Apparently round 3 is me being sick! Last Thursday I felt something weird in my throat, Friday I had a cough, Saturday I was congested, Sunday I had the watery eyes and lethargy. Today, Monday, I had to call out of work because I'm still sick plus my eyes are swollen from rubbing all the "tears" away that it would be too embarrassing so go to work anyway.

All I want is toast for breakfast, Gatorade all day long, and soup and warm rolls from Bertucci's, delivered by my handsome husband after work. I'm annoyed that I have to sit here eating my ground turkey and peppers for lunch. All I want is comfort foods! I mean, what is it about toast that makes being sick more tolerable? But, since it is not in my personality to quit or cheat, I'm staying true to the Whole30.

Well, I'm going to ride the high of taking two Advil Cold & Sinus and go shower and brush my teeth. Woot!
