It is completely unfair to get sick while trying to live a healthy lifestyle. Shouldn't be allowed. Being sick makes you want to eat comfort foods and curl up in bed, not munch salads and hit the stairmaster.
And yet it's often times our original lack of salads and stairmasters that either caused or exascerbated our illness. Vicious circle that one. Being sick and tired leads to habits that further feeling sick and tired.
When I used to exercise regularly I almost never caught cold. On the other hand, that was pre-children, and since having two school age toddlers I have never been so frequently sick in my life. I am told that changes as they get a bit older. Still waiting.
The other vicious cycle, and this is a good one, is that the more you exercise and eat healthfully, the better you feel. The better you feel, the more you want to work out and eat right. It just goes and goes. You feel better, you look better and you want to do more and more to increase both. Taken too far we turn into Pamela Anderson, but I don't feel like I am in dire risk yet.
Somehow, we have to make it to that place, where the pointer tips to the healthy/happy side of the scale and we leave the sick/sad side behind, hopefully for good.
See you there.
