When I'm sick, I don't feel like eating. I have to force myself to eat and try to recover. For example, today I have had the following: Sprite, Saltines, soup and some oatmeal. Water, of course. I have no desire to eat.
I always feel that after being sick is the best time for me to jump back on the wagon, because I'm not viewing food as anything more than fuel. It's not something I desire or use for comfort. It's strictly nourishment. This is how I know that I can change my mind about food. If I was sick and still craving and eating, I know I would have a deeper problem. I am aware of my food and how I feel towards it. Does this make sense?
How do you feel when you're sick? Do you eat? Part of it may be laziness, too. I don't want to cook anything therefore I'm not eating much because I have no energy. Do you have staple foods you eat when you're sick? Does your significant other help you or do they leave you alone?
