Sick and not even helping...

I was really bummed yesterday. On Friday, my regular weekly weigh-in day, I was the same as last week, 165 lbs. I think. After being sick essentially all weekend, eating just a little and expending an awful lot, I figured it might really help with a pound or two. No such luck!!  I was actually up a pound to 166! I thought splurging on calories considering I was eating so very little should be okay. Maybe it's water gain or something. Although I haven't been working out either since I've felt very flu-like. Feel kinda good for a while, but once I start moving around very much, feel tired and achy. I did go for a short walk last night since I was feeling better. Plus, I've been trying to stay away from dairy due to harder to digest and it is harder to diet when dairy is out of my picture. Oh well, I'm feeling better today and will be back to the norm soon. Although I postponed my birthday dinner and will be doing it tonight. Feel like splurging a little, but will have to watch it. Initially, I wanted to be at my ideal weight by this birthday, but realized some time ago that it wasn't very realistic for me to attain by that date. Well, I'm rambling a bit so will go for now. Almost time for lunch!!

Hope everyone is having a good day and has a great week!
