Lazy as hell so far today. Stayed up late last night...Yuck!

Late night - Decided if I was going to eat junk I was going to find out what it took to 1) make me no longer hungry and 2) where I got full
4 Dry Ramens with chinese hot mustard and franks hot sauce (dont ask) - 1600 cal
3 serving bags lays chips - 330 cal
4 serving presweeted oatmeal packs -440 cal

Okay, got not hungry, after all but two Ramen's , then found full after the last two. Yeah I was hungry, roomates had nothing to bum but junk (obviously) and I was going to eat some so decided to find out a few things. One I was seriously hungry, and two... Now that Im getting close to my deadline I probably going to pay for snacking while studying for hours... lol On another note - I actually slept well after.

Hope you get better soon ! I don't know what you have, try eating easy to digest stuff, like fruits and liquids. I feel the same way but it's a pain in my teeth. Took 4x500mg Acetaminophen and I was still almost crying of pain and can't sleep.

Now I want to go to the gym this evening eventhough I still have a flue, but I gotta go I haven't train since last wednesday.
