What doesn't kill me.....
Alright so I have a nasty cold (no.. it's not the swine flu!)... and I got kicked out of work yesterday by the owner of my company because I had a bad coughing fit and so he sent me home.
Anyways.. on the way home I got some proper medicine for this cold... Mucinex and Sugar Free cough drops. I get Ayleigh from Daycare and head home.
What is weird is that I just noticed that I didn't have my afternoon snack yesterday. And I didn't eat after dinner either. (I did have pizza for dinner though... :copon And then I skipped one of my morning snacks this morning without realizing it. (I have two..I can't make it between breakfast and lunch without a piece of string cheese (50cals) and then later two rice cakes(80 cals).
I'm wondering if my snack skippage and after dinner no-cheating is due to the cough drops. They are sugar free, but not void of calories.... they are 5 cals each. Which is 2 more calories than the gum I chew... and I can chew a whole pack (14 pieces) in a day.
Maybe it's because they last a long time. It can take almost a half hour to finish one. I don't know what the connection is... but hey, I'll continue to eat sugar free cough drops if it stops me from snacking or wanting to! :8855:
