.. blasted cold ..

alright, so i knew that there was the first good cold / sinus infection of the season brewing a few weeks back when the allergies started in. but they have gotten exponentially worse since the cotton started flying. the past few days i have experienced a few medical phenomenons. i will share one. for some odd reason my sinuses like to really plug up at night. my poor hubs. i can't breathe out my nose and resort to breathing out my mouth. of course i don't know this cause it happens while i sleep. well this morning was nothing out of the ordinary. i woke up to extreme cotton mouth, like couldn't move my tongue cotton mouth. i can only imagine what my poor tongue must have felt being dried into a coffin. i managed to get stuff moving, but my nose was stuffed solid. couldn't even procure a sniffle out of the nostrils. so i headed to the shower and to brush my teeth. usually the shower helps loosen stuff, it must be the steam. while i was brushing my teeth my stuffed nose began to run. yes it was stuffed and runny at the same time. i couldn't sniffle to save myself the snot, so instead i got nice snot trail crawling down my face much like a teething one year old. medical phenomenons. 

so since i have been hit with this unbelievable illness of sorts, i have been so unmotivated to get up and move. i do know my body well though, i hope you know yours, and if i tried to work out while i was sick it would only amplify what is already there. so instead of a medium sinus infection, it would greatly proceed to being a intense one over night. so i have been playing it cool. lucky for me, my trainer had to reschedule his appointments and i don't meet him until tomorrow. one more day to rest up. hallelujah. 

as for food today, i had the following..

breakfast

2 pieces of toast

1 cup of dried cheerios

10 ounces of water

lunch

1/2 grilled chicken breast

1 cup of rice

1/2 c of carrots

water

dinner

macaroni and cheese

lemonade 

{not the best meal but it sounded good}

for snacks, i just did gum and water. i haven't been feeling like eating much lately. it is almost kind of forced. 

so i am going to pull on my jammies and grab a blanket and go snuggle with my pup and be on the couch. i can't fathom having the energy to go to the gym. until tomorrow my friends, hopefully the sinus fairy comes while i sleep and remove some of this nasty.
