I think I'm getting sick...

[Kristin415]

Please I hope someone will agree with me on this so I feel better. I think I'm getting a chest cold! And I don't think I should exercise! My chest will feel worse if I start breathing heavy exercising. I know it will. I feel bad, and I feel like I'm making up excuses! But I don't think I can put my all into it. I hate when I get this chest cold. I seem to get it every winter and I just said the other day that I haven't got sick since I was dieting and my vitamins must help. I guess not! :( I am going to the mall later so I will get some walking in. Oh well. :(

Kristin, if you don't feel well, it is ok to skip exercising. If it makes you feel terribly guilty, put in the exercise tape and just do a little bit of the workout. Ya know just to get your body moving slighltly. But, don't overdue anything, take care of yourself. If you are going to get some walking in at the mall anyway, then don't worry about it. I hate chest colds too, i try everything to avoid them. They really wipe me out. I usually get one every year and it lasts for at least a month. Make sure you drink lots of fluids.. (HAHAHHAHA, like we don't already drink enough water) Also, chamomile tea is very soothing for a chest cold. Make a big pot and sip it all day long.

Feel better.

I'm getting sick too!!! :( I started feeling feverish yesterday and by the time I woke up this morning I felt like I had been hit by a bus. I can't breathe, my ears and throat hurt, and the fever makes me achey. Oh, sorry to complain I was just trying to sympathize with you Kristin. I say don't exercise today if you have a chest cold. The heavy breathing will irritate you lungs. I hope you feel better!

Hey VA girl.. you poor thing, i hate getting sick, i am a big baby. I hope you feel better soon.

VA girl you sound a lot worse then me! I hope you feel better!

And guess what? I ****ed it up. I told myself to stop being a p***y and DO IT! I don't want to get in the habit of skipping exercising. And I did the whole tape and I survived! I am very proud of myself. I didn't think I was up to it, BUT I went and smoked a cigerette after I told myself I wasn't going to! So exercising was my punishment! LOL! If I can smoke with my chest bothering me I can exercise.

Thanks for the sympathy Joan and Kristin :heartpump: I just ate a piece of stuffed crust Pizza Hut pizza!!!! I know, I know, BAD BAD BAD!!! But you know, I think it actually made me feel better :blabla:

Sorry to hear you are getting sick. I have been so lucky this year and haven't got ill. I swear it is because of eating healthy now and the water and exercise. Kristin I smoke as well *sigh* 20+ years now and I have a prescription for Wellbutrin but dang it is over a 100$. Hopefully I can get it filled before the prescription date runs out.

I'm getting sick of my boss and feel like quiting, does that count as being sick?

[VA Girl]

Hockysk8er, I believe that DOES qualify as being sick. One of the worst kinds of illness you can have :blabla: :blabla: :blabla:
