comfort food while sick?

[Meghan42]

new chick here, does anyone else want comfort food when you feel like you are coming down with a sore throat or cold? i felt sick at work and on the way home i stopped at the supermarket for some bleu cheese. mmmmmhhhmm.. and also got a milk shake and burger. I also crave buttered bread with jelly.

I suggest you use fatty chicken soup, like boil a whole chicken and you'll recover.

Thats actually the last thing i think about, just like your thread topic

it has become the norm to use food and link it to emotions. some people for example might react to tragedy in their life and binge on ice cream

if you study eastern medicine like i have you actually will realize that when you eat food you have emotional changes. some people will actually get angry after a meal, some will get lethargic, some will get happy. it is something you have to teach yourself to overcome

It's a bad idea. Plus it just makes you sound kinda greedy. I mean you THINK you MIGHT be coming down with something (f**k could be covid) and you want all kinds of food? C'mon

 

[cbbram]

Yeah let's talk about getting fat... Next

 

[RickRock]

No I domt do comfort food. I have planned cheat meals but not the same. Mine are planned and beneficial for my caloric balance and goals

 

[Tazz]

not really anything i think about lol

It depends on what I am coming down with. For me, typically I do not want food at all when I am getting sick. When I start to feel better is when I start craving food.

Try cold-eze lozenges will get rid of your sore throat in approximately 2 days me and my mom love these. You want to eat hot shit like soup, chicken noodle... and try drinking warm tea. Helps your throat
