Does being sick affect your eating in a positive or negative way?
For the most part it I will lose my appetite. It’s usually allergies and we don’t even need to go into the effects of post
nasal drip on the stomache. But, that said, I notice when I do eat I usually crave more unhealthy stuff. I wonder if that is a comfort type thing?
It’s definitely something I have to think about when I am working on losing weight. It’s very easy to grab the grilled cheese sandwich (hubby will make with lots of butter) and high sodium chicken noodle soup. You just have to find something else to comfort you instead. Hugs with a kid or pet work wonders. 
Ugh, I hate being sick and when I’m sick my diet consists of tea and crackers LOL lately it seems to happen a lot too. yuck.
