sick and tired

I've had a very bad cold this week and almost lost my voice at one point it got so bad. I am exhausted and my whole body hurts. Maybe it is a combination of being sick and not getting enough sleep. I have to get up around 2 hours earlier than I did before, am I am still having trouble getting to bed any earlier than before. I have been sleeping an average of 5.5 hours of sleep a night. NOT enough. I am soooooooooooo glad that it is finally Friday. I can sleep in tomorrow.
I am still shrinking a bit. I am not altogether sure why. I am almost never hungry and sometimes forget to eat dinner, but I do still eat, and it is not that different from before I started having problems. I am not eating properly, I know. The only really healthy meal I have is lunch, as the school provides it. I have a tiny breakfast, usually yogurt or something like that that is quick and easy. For dinner, often I just have a sandwich (most often peanutbutter related) when I remember that I have to eat. I have had 2 hamburgers so far this week, though, as I have been out and busy. I also eat way too much chocolate and junk foods.
I started taking some multivitamins so I am hoping they will help me feel a bit more energetic. I know that I need to eat a bit better, but at the moment it is difficult. I STILL haven't even gotten my home fully organized.
I had to postpone my next doctor visit (before my last healthcare account expired I went and got enough meds to last) as I have to wait until I get my new healthcare set up. Because I changed schools and went for a new VISA, I have to set up an account using my new VISA. Why do they make things so complicated.
