Crap! I'm sick...

[SMKelly]

and my MO for getting rid of bronchitis ( I have it once a year or so) is Robitussin D and airborne along with inhalers + antibiotics.

I went off for 1/2 day on T-day and have been "clean" but not yet back in ketosis, I woke up this a.m. with the beginnings of this bronchial thing.

All I can do is continue to eat clean and hope I have a Whoosh once I'm back in ketosis. This is really aggravating, though.

Anyone else experience this?

TIA,
Shelley

I had strep throat all last week, so I went a bit off plan but since I hardly ate, I didn't gain anything but it took me 3-4 days to get back into ketosis. Hope you feel better!

Ick! I hope you feel better soon! I used to get throat issues all the time then a couple of years ago I got my tonsils removed and now it is never bad! A little more drastic than robitusson but it worked for me! But...if you decide to go the robitusson route... They make sugar free for diabetics (and those of us with low sugar ways of life!), so you can still take it! Sometimes they put it behind the counter though (don't know why) but if you ask for it most pharmacies have it!

Thanks to all who replied! I am still on the Robitussin DM because the other stuff for diabetics contained aspartame.

So pick your poison, I guess. I've been trying still to eat clean but I really need to get over this because if I don't, it'll turn into pneumonia. Am hoping to restart induction tomorrow.

My husband never ever thought he'd see me risk pneumonia just to stay on an eating plan.

Three steps forward, one step back. But I'm determined to make this work!

Happy holidays to all!
