Nine Pounds Lighter. / myLot

I lost 9 lbs in 4 days. It's not deliberate though. Yes, I'm trying to lose weight but not like this. I did not realized I lost this much until I weigh in this morning since my husband told me last night that he thinks I lost weight. Apparently, while I am sick, I haven't eaten much but just drink water. I remember on the second day when the fever was high, I just sleep almost the whole day and wake up just to drink water or go to the toilet. My appetite is not yet back until now but it is much better.

I often lose quite a bit of weight when I'm ill but trying to keep it off is the problem.

Getting sick is one way of doing it, although it sucks being sick. lol

So, I guess you just had some kind of tropical virus then. Glad you are feeling better.

What happened to you? I pray that you are well and better now in Jesus name, Amen. When I was hospitalized back in the 9Os I also reduced weight, and what I did, I maintain it, lol! If we are only see the good side of something bad, it would be fun and useful you think so?

Hope you will be better soon. Your appetite will return, just have small meals at first.

Wait that's a lot of weight! 4kg in 4 days!! That's an accomplishment...but for the wrong reasons too.
