So it's Friday again, and I'm very happy about that, except that it marks the fact that this cold has been ruling my life for two full weeks instead of just one. I was feeling better on Tuesday but worse again on Wednesday and pretty samey on Thursday, so I'm not super optimistic about today either. I went to the gym last night but it doesn't really count because all I did was sit in the jacuzzi and breathe steam in for thirty minutes, then baked myself dry in the sauna. I mean, it felt great, even though it was 50 degrees and I was in the outdoor jacuzzi, and for awhile it did clear my sinuses and make me feel better, but it's not exactly the exercise I usually look for at the gym.
On the other hand, I weighed myself this morning and things look good for me to have a loss when I weigh-in officially tomorrow. Not being able to taste anything hasn't put me off food entirely, but it's definitely curbed the snacking impulses. Not only does it seem pointless, it seems a positive waste of snack food, eating it when I can barely enjoy it. Now that the temperature's dropped, I've been making lots of hot tea, drinking that along with the endless glasses of water. If I don't get better this weekend, I've promised that I will go to a doctor of some sort early next week. If I'm going to fly in eight days, I had better not feel like this or I will literally explode something in my head at altitude.
