What to do? I'm suffering with a real nasty cold bug right now, and I'm finding it difficult to stay within my low carb guidelines. Should I just count this week as a write off and get back on track when I'm feeling better. The problem is the sore throat, which feels soooo much better if I have a neo-citron, or tea with milk and sweetener, I don't really like it black. My boyfriend bought some throat lozenges (Cepastat) which are sugar-free, sweetened with sorbitol. I do not want to eat anything at all, I would prefer to stick with just liquids. Any advice?
