This weekend I didn't exercise at all. I'm not sorry about it and I don't feel bad or guilty about it. I also know that I've eaten terribly. The good news, though, is that even on my worst caloric day this weekend, I was still safely 300 calories under what my body normally burns over the course of a day. Working out 5 times a week, with some of those days being double workouts (running 3 miles and then going to yoga), has me feeling like I'm starving all the time and, when I indulged this weekend, I thought I'd gone overboard. The truth of the matter is, I'm doing ok. I'm recording everything I eat, every exercise I do, and I'm always conscious of what my end goal is.
Granted, my stomach feels far fuller and I don't have the light, empty feeling that comes from a sweaty 36 minute run and an even sweatier 90 minute yoga class; but I also don't feel like I've stuffed myself to the point of no return and I feel like a lard butt. The even better news is that tomorrow is a brand new day and new opportunity to get back on the wagon and get it cracking!!! LOL this is definitely a journey and a process; I'm just happier that it is becoming less and less of a struggle.
Yay me!
