Cold bug and eating and drinking

GRRR! Have had a cold for a bout a week and I just cant seem to get myself to eat enough! You know when youre sick, you never feel like eating, but I'm concerend I'm going to get myself in trouble.  Need protein to fight the cold but dont feel like eating or drinking...oh great, now I'm rambling...  :-)

My surgeon told me that if and when I get sick and can't tolerate solid food, that my priority is to keep up with fluids to prevent dehydration.  He instructed me to go back to phase 1 of my post op plan.  Phase 1 for me was clear liquids with a protein shake as tolerated.
