Sick. Real sick. Lord help me. LOL

I always get sick half way or towards the end of a workout program.   I am one month into Brazil Buttlift and I took this week off to catch up on some missed workouts with BBL and Insanity (my previous program) so next week I could get back on schedule.

Well, my immune system has a different plan.  This is one of the nastiest colds/flu I have had in a while.  It took over from nothing to full blown in less than 12 hours.  While I enjoy the down time, my butt hurts if I sit down too long.  I'm too active as a mom chasing my toddler around and picking up his messes! Hoping that echinecha tea with unprocessed honey, sucking on a cold-eeze lozenge 4x a day and lots of chicken noodle soup (I made a KILLER homemade recipie!) will get this girl working on that butt soon!  There is less than 2 months until summer and to my trip to the 2012 Summit in Las Vegas with Beachbody and I need to represent!

Do you have any natural at home remedies for colds or flu?  I would like to hear them!
