Dizziness aside, I have NO idea what yesterday was all about! I ate, and ate, and ate. Guess a true binge. I was way too dizzy to think about working out, at least until early evening, but by then I was stuffed and uncomfortable. No idea why I was eating. I mean, I KNOW I've been so much hungrier lately - last couple of weeks. Days when I'm thinking I'm so hungry by lunch, or by dinner, and then still feeling hungry when I've gone to bed. And eating more calories and attributing it to this Insanity workout. Which I think still has merit. BUT...certainly can't explain away non-stop eating. And not even "cravings" so to speak. Although...I would have liked something like a subway sandwich or maybe some big burrito from somewhere (one being an obviously better choice than the other) but not craving to the point where I think I was eating this or that to try to fill that craving. Hmmm....and I keep thinking about it and I keep coming up with NOTHING. NO real stress, not anxiety to speak of, doubt if it's pms, no arguments....I mean, in fairness, I WAS hungry. AT first. But by the time I had cereal and then those animal cookies (organic or not...still cookies...but they WERE good) I knew I wasn't really hungry anymore. And a couple times earlier I'd feel that unpleasant too-full feeling and then an hour later I'd feel "empty" again...But by the time I hit the chocolate, I KNEW I wasn't hungry and I just wanted to savor the flavor of the chocolate. Which I did. BUT... so yesterday was a no workout day, topped with a way too much food day. First time in a LONG time my calories consumed outweighed my calories burned. Like by over 350. And that may be a conservative estimate, since I'm wracking my brain here and can't think of what else in this house I may have eaten yesterday. But who knows? I'll keep thinking.

So, today is a new day. I'm not starving today. I DID the workout from Insanity I should have done yesterday. It was a Cardio Recovery day, son only burned 100 calories over the 32 min. Lots of deep stretching, yoga type moves with slow squats and slow lunges and some yoga. All good, all necessary. BUT...think I'll eat my breakfast (had half a protein bar before doing the workout, knowing I needed fuel but didn't want my full breakfast.), wait a few and then really think about doing what is supposed to be TODAY'S workout. I want to stay committed to this workout routine and honestly, the cardio recovery isn't a workout as much as a keeping your muscles limber. ....Later - I did today's Insanity workout as well. Feel much better :) Back on track!

Self-compliment of the day...I slipped up but got right back into the routine. DID NOT let it defeat me.
