and on the seventh day, she feasted.

She partook of the earth’s bounty and it was good. She looked upon sunflower seeds and fresh pumpkin and roasted chicken and kale and bagel chips and cheese and craisins and cottage cheese and more sunflower seeds. She resteth from her calorie counting and measuring and setteth not a foot upon the track.

OMG, y’all. It was a day of wreckless abandon. I have been fighting this for DAYS. It was like if I did not give in, it simply was not going to go away. I wanted my belly FULL. And full it is! I honestly feel like it is out of my system now. I can move on and be focused this week because I don’t have to constantly be fighting the urges to fill myself up. Let’s hope that is how it goes, anyway!

Hope y’all had a great weekend. My belly is full and I am hap, hap, happy! I feel ready to go after some good runs this week. Hopefully a 5 miler. Oh how high my aspirations can be when I am sitting here cozy in front of the computer when it is dark outside. We’ll see how hap, hap, happy I am when it is time to hit the track in the morning.

I used to struggle w/these urges until I quit fighting them. Now, I give myself freedom on Sunday. Some weeks I go hog-wild and other times it’s not too bad, but knowing that I can eat whatever I want in a couple of days often gets me through the week.

One thing I used to do when I worked out in the mornings was to wear my workout clothes to bed. I’m not saying I never skipped a workout doing this, but I felt pretty stupid and disappointed in myself to have to strip off unused workout clothes to take a shower.

Enjoy your run tomorrow!

Hey my little shrinking friend! I think that pig out is just what you needed! I’ll fight something for only so long and if it just won’t go away then I must need it, right?
You can call it your little celebration party for after finding out your mom is fine. I love the cruise idea and now I want to be one of your sisters so I can tag along! :)
