Hi Eliruthy -- we're in the same boat....I've been sick the last couple weeks (going to doc in the morning) and I've been "feeding FRENZY mode" it seems. 

There is a lot of good advice to help us get back on track. 

I have come to the conclusion I need a Plan B for sickness, a Plan C for when life gets too busy, a Plan D for a combination of when I'm sick AND life is too busy. 

So tomorrow morning I'm starting my detox.....how is your detox going?  The doc I'm going to see for this illness -- second week of cold that won't go away and have extreme fatigue and wheezing and just walking a few steps makes me out of breath....but the doc I'm going to prescribes low carb WOE so that will be refreshing vs my primary care doc who believes "any diet will work if you eat less"....blah blah....

So welcome back and let's make a plan ahead for what we will do to stay on track when life hands us lemons next time...

Elizabeth

Hi, Elizabeth! :)

I have not had ONE cold, flu etc.. since I've been true to the FTS lifestyle.
For decades before, I could count on AT LEAST two bouts of bronchitis and two colds every year.
And many years, bouts with flu were common, even with flu shots.

It seems that most ailments like these (bacterial and viral) need elevated blood sugar to thrive.
When we eat few carbs and our blood sugar is lower, they do not do well.

If you stay on track with FTS, you may not need to worry much about "Plan B".
But we should all have a "Plan C". Because sooner or later, our lives will be busy.

I hope you fell better, soon! :) :) :)

Tony
What you do today is what matters!
