Having just suffered through the flu for the last seven days and an upper respiratory infection that I'm still fighting, I didn't have much of an appetite (but I wasn't nauseous). I've been existing mainly on water and the occasional piece of fruit. I did enjoy some chicken noodle soup with saltines yesterday.

I've lost seven pounds from a week ago. Maybe I should write a book? Call it the "Strain-B Diet". You'll look and feel like Nick Nolte after a three-day binge, but you'll lose the weight.

Oddly, beginning last night I had a craving for a Fillet-O-Fish from McDonalds, that has yet to be satisfied.
