hey peeps, sorry not been around. Still suffering despite antibiotics.... one of the joys of having asthma catch a cold, end up with a cough to rival a rotweilers [sp] bark LOL
Thank you everyone for the get well wishes, and hope you all have a good week, I will try and catch up on your diaries soon.
The cauli tots were a cauli catastrophe {h2bs joke not mine
} will try tinkering the recipe when I feel better, as they tasted nice just gloopy. Never can get used to cups of things.
TOTM done so lost 6 pounds this week, Yay.
Clean and green this week, mostly fish and greens.

Congratulations to you both Jim, I hope you have a wonderful day. :candledinner:
My heart goes out to Coleen, i can't begin to imagine how hard it must have been before the medications got so much better.
Good to hear she is doing well, I wouldn't wish Asthma on my worst enemy.

Feeling sorry for myself today. :cry:
This chest thing is getting me down. H2B flinches every time I cough. Sleeps through it at night tho - then wonders why I am cross when he doesn't want me to nap during the day.
I have been good with the food, but am craving a slice of hot buttered toast and a mug of hot chocolate.
The clean and green week was arranged before I got sick, hating it now. Sigh, fed up with cheese, maybe I'll nibble a sausage and see if it helps the craving.
Sis and BiL confirmed for the wedding trip as well as niece and nephew and partners. Must try and sort out flights at some point soon, and hire cars, get H2B to try on his kilt, if he loses too much weight we are in trouble
This wee moaning mini is away to nibble.

Ooh that bacon dipping does sound nice.
I like salami and cheese roll ups, omelettes, home made burgers, as well as a good old bacon and egg fry up

Hi cally, hope you feel better soon. Agree that being ill is never good but many of us had bad habits that we used to indulge at this point. Hang in there and when you recover you will feel much better for it. Must admit that i think atkins has improved my system and resistance overall - so go with feeding yourself lovely legal food

Thanx everyone, I am not feeling so down today. Managed to get a few hours sleep this afternoon which helped.
As the doc said your airways naturally narrow night and morning it explains why I feel so bad at those times, living on my ventolin LOL. Antobio's finished today. Doc said I could be stuck with cough 3 to 4 week tho - oh joy!!
Kat1e - you are so right about habits, I was tempted but knew it was a comfort thing and I would have to do induction again. Quite proud of myself for resisting, wouldn't have only a few months ago - must be learning.
Ese, must admit usually only stick to fried egg, but may give it a go, or maybe scrambled - would miss the runny yolk tho.
I sometimes have streaky fried crispy and dip it in Philli. How do you make the pancakes? they sounds good.
Hee hee - cheers Jim, only wish it was so simple,, blasted kilts have slits and buckles to sort out and I am rubbish at sewing. nappy pins perhaps
Having trout and stir fried cabbage tonight, bacon and eggs this morning. So on track diet wise. Not doing so well on water, hurts to swallow. Been coughing so hard mt throat bleeds, not good. Must try harder with the H2O.

Hi there, sorry you're so poorly, my DH has asthma and this time of year if he gets a chest infection it can get pretty bad.
I made the cream cheese pancakes and they were lovely and soft and not scratchy so they may suit the bad throat at the moment.
My DH was eating the pancakes and moaning about how he was going to fit into his kilt jacket in 3 weeks time. The look on his face when he found out the pancakes were Atkins friendly was priceless. Only problem is now he wants them at the weekend too!

I feel your pain, touch wood I've not had a sore throat in over a year. One year I had a throat infection every month for 6 months till I was hospitalised on Christmas day! Gutted
Still got my blooming tonsils though!
