I have been sleeping most of the day yesterday because I was achy and feverish with a terrible sore throat. It was hurted so bad that it was painful to swallow anything, even teas and soups. I had hot fluids all day yesterday and slept on and off. I even had a slice of toast but that was like swallowing a bunch of needles!
I wasn't surprised to see the scale go down to 138.5 this morning. I didn't eat much and the scale tends to go down whenever I am sick. Maybe I should get sick more often?? Nah. I hate being sick anyways.
I am feeling better today but throat still hurts. Fever and achy body are gone, so now I can move around more instead of laying on the couch all day. I got tons of laundry to catch up on before my trip on Saturday to north.
I watched the Biggest Loser last night and wow, the results were amazing from all the contestants. I'm thinking about checking out Jillian Michaels' books at the library because it's obvious with the black team that her method works. I'm eager to watch the new season in 2 weeks because it looks like Jillian vs. Bob and Kim is not there. I'll be happy to see her gone.
This is the first season I have watched the Biggest Loser and now I'm curious about the past seasons. I plan to check out the library in the summer time to watch the other seasons.
I hope you all are healthy and well and not sick like me.

HI
138? Shit you are on my heels! You will be at goal soon. I am sorry that you are not feeling well. That sucks.
So I'm not the only one who doesnt like her?? She's just insensitive and harsh..I mean..Bob can be hardcore in the gym but at lease he's sensitive towards his team members.
You think they'd have the previous seasons on dvd at the library? It's worth a try! Maybe you could even suggest them to order it..hmm..this is giving me ideas. lol
Lauren that's awful news! I hope you don't have strep or something. Get better soon! You may have to make a trip to the doc!
I love watching the BL now. I really didn't like Jillian at first and then the episode before last made me like her more. I always cry at the final show. I wish Julie could have won to be the first girl ever. She looked amazing!
My post was to every person that would read it and take heed. Ah, life is so short and we need to thing "a lot" before we speak. I just want everyone to read that and know they have a different choice to make.
I love the Biggest Loser program. I have watched every season except the first one, the only reason I didn't watch that one is because I thought the reality shows were out of hand.....I didn't think about the "Biggest Loser" as being.....weight loss.......I thought more of a person being a "loser in life"....you get the point..
I also noticed and pointed out to hubby that I only saw Jillian and Bob in the new seasons preview.....They make an awesome "rival" team.
I am so sorry that you have been sick.....and I just realized I have gone on and on.
Blessings to you for health, wealth, happiness and all your heart;s desires. Chargail
Let's hope you are feeling much, much better soon! Sore throats are horrible things! The best "home" remedy I've ever tried is gargling with vinegar water. You take apple cider vinegar....like a quarter of a cup and then add water. You want to have it as strong as you can, but if its too strong it will make you choke. Experiment with it. It does work. Its something about the vinegar....kills bacteria. Get better soon!
I'm sorry that your throat has been in such pain. I had something like that once and had to get medication from the doctor. Gargling full glasses of warm salt water several times a day also helped a lot, even though it was gross.
I watched the Biggest Loser last season when Kim was new to the show. She didn't do very well with her team when it came to morale and relationships. Looks like she had similar problems this season. I think Jillian probably did such a good job with her team because she new how to balance relationships and being a boot camp hard-ass. :) I didn't really watch much this season but that's the impression that I got.
throats are horrible...I am glad you are feeling better today. Even though you are not feeling well I bet the 138 felt great... get to feeling better and keep drink water ....
