        What a pain! We thought I might have it a couple of years ago but it turned out to be Lyme's Disease which is just as much a pain when you end up sleeping all the time.

        My boyfriend in high school (forever ago) was out for about a month with it. I would try to do little things (like the walk)... and try and flush your system with water as much as possible and keep taking vitamins!!

        TAKE CARE!!

            I got it at AGE 40 (try explaining *that* to your teenage daughter!) I was never so sick in my life. I couldn't even get out of bed for about 3 weeks. I had a horrible throat, no appetite, and severe pain in my spleen area, so much so that lying on my side was out of the question. I was off work for 7 weeks. I lost about 17 pounds and was eventually hospitalized when I became seriously dehydrated....

            TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. GET LOTS AND LOTS OF REST, AND AT LEAST DRINK AS MUCH LIQUID AS YOU POSSIBLY CAN.

              BETTY!!! lordy, i hope that is not going to be the case for me. it has already been almost 2 weeks. i am able to get out of bed although i am very very tired and my throat has just started easing up. i have lost some lb's, but trying to stay very hydrated.
              my goodness, you had a terrible time of it!!

                        Happy to hear you are feeling better. I don't think I have had mono but I have had strep throat severl times and these things just knock you out.

                          thanks guys. jess, you are right, i am dying to get back out there and get training, but i do NOT want to set myself back in any way. yes, i have lost about 10 pounds from this mono, i think....but i am sure some of it will come back on when i am eating more. sadly.

                            Well this is very interesting. As you have decreased your activity you have eaten less and lost more weight. I've come to this conclusion, workout more, eat more, gain weight. So I am taking the next 2 weeks off from endurance exercise and eating less and loosing a bit of weight that was creeping up a bit....So back to the type exercise I did for 8 months when I lost the most weight. 2mi run, 5 mile bike, not on the same day. Loaded up the house with induction level foods....plus extra veggies.

                              good plan, jess. i sort of agree with you. your hunger when you are working out a lot drives you to eat is a little more than what you really need to eat to maintain. interesting! let me know how it goes back on induction foods. i think i am getting scurvy b/c all that tastes good to me these days is egg drop soup....not a lot of calories in that!!
