having the flu and eating

[red5260]

I am laying in bed here. Sick...AGAIN. Picked up a flu bug from somewhere. Probably the gym. AND it probably is my own fault. I got behind on my sleep and continued to train hard. I saw the writing on the wall but ignored it.
Anyway, as you all know when you are sick, you're not very hungry. My question is: should I continue to eat as if I wasn't sick. Force feed myself in other words. In the past, I lose bout 7 lbs when I've had the flu or when I had Strep last month. Just didn't feel like eating. I gain and loose weight very easy but I wonder if the loss could be less if I ate more. I'm not super sick. A slight fever but mostly a lot of revolting snot at this point. Thanks!

over training + hormone? = flu

Nonetheless you should still continue eating to maintain the LBM

Overtrain?......yeah probably. hormones? none yet.
K, I'll keep the food coming in. Or at least the protein. I'll cut back on the carbs since I am not very active right now.
