I have an unforeseen issue with my phase 2 -- I have come down sick! Darn those kids going back to school and spreading their germs around. I am really surprised because I hardly ever catch viruses.

Anyway, I'm not tolerating food well. This morning I chocked down an egg meal (the 1 whole + 3 whites) with some spinach, but didn't eat anything else the rest of the day. I thought I should eat something this evening but couldn't stomach meat. So I tried a "shake" with 5 frozen strawberries, ice, and 100 calories of my husband's whey protein powder. The powder only contains whey protein concentrate, vanilla, and stevia. This actually has stayed down ok so far.

So what do I do going forward? I don't think I'm getting better for a few days at least. Is this meal reasonably ok or going to totally screw me up? Would it be better to just transition to phase 3 early? I never expected to do anything rogue this round, but I'm managing the best I can.

Sorry to hear you've got a bug ! Both of those meals sound fine...but you may stall just because of the bug....some do, some don't. You've done enough injections that if you want to transition to p3, you can do so safely. I suggest listening to your body....if you feel you need more food to kick the bug, then transition....if you are doing fine, then it's ok to keep going if you want to. I hope you feel better soon! Those fall bugs really stink. My hubby has one now too.
