I know sick days count as S days, but I feel like it's still a day of failure. I'm pretty sure that this is from years of dieting behavior. Any one else struggle with this?

(some kind of icky stomach bug that hit yesterday evening, still going strong

)

Poor you. I hope you feel better soon.

i know just what you mean! I always have an conversation going on in my head about how it is an S day..but am I really sick enough to count it as such or am I playing games with myself. Take the S day.. pamper yourself.. get a good night's sleep... hope you feel better tomorrow!

My "criteria" for a sick-day S day: if I don't feel well enough to eat normally, it's an S day. When I have digestive upsets, I tend to want either salty things or sweet things. It's usually pretty simple stuff, but small amounts more often than usual.

I had a stomach bug a couple weeks ago too. I didn't really feel like eating much at all then, though. I usually don't want to eat much when I have a cold, either (hurts to swallow with sore throat). Headaches don't interfere with my appetite, though, and like many women I tend to get cravings during a certain part of the month. I'd forgotten about "sick days are s-days" and not been giving myself a break then.
