Day 4: Still Sick

While I am much better today, I am still ill. The tooth isn't as swollen as it was though now I am dealing with bloodsugar problems from lack of eating. In the matter of a day alone I have lost 2lbs, bringing me to a grand total of about 5lbs since this whole tooth fiasco started. All because I cannot eat solid foods. It sucks. This has happened one time before in 2005 and I lost about 15lbs. At this point if I did that I would end up around 95lbs, which is underweight for my height. I need to find protein sources that I can eat without chewing, not only to keep my weight in check but to also keep my energy up.

I work all day tomorrow so tonight will be spent putting together a lunch that I can take with me tomorrow. I hate working like this, but I don't have backup. I am essentially our poor excuse of a manager's backup. I cannot fall ill since I have no backup.

I'm going back to sleep. That is all I have been doing, getting up for an hour or two to do bits of housework or homework and then going back to sleep. I am so ready for this to be over so I can go about my normal daily business.
