3 days off

I haven’t exercised in three days. My exercise partner had some plans and couldn’t it make it for a few of our scheduled workouts. I coincidentally had taken off from work for a couple of days and decided to make it a complete vacation and not exercise as well. The past two days have been fantastic. I wasn’t sedentary by any means because I used these past couple of days to repay some play dates and had my daughter’s friends come over for the first time.

I absolutely loved being able to give them all my attention and just play and watch them. It was amazing. The weather was absolutely perfect too. This was by far one of the best vacations ever.

I’m happy I took a break from working out, I think my body wanted a real rest. Of course I’m still pretty tired because I never want to go to sleep, but I feel really relaxed and good. My eating this past week was the worst ever. I craved and ate all really bad things, like cheese puffs, frozen pizza, and bagels or toast with cream cheese. I’m not sure what happened. It started even before the break in workouts so that’s not to blame. I didn’t feel like I was emotionally eating because I was feeling quite good. Not overly good, just really good and content. I just felt really hungry for these things. I think hormones are involved.

I’m going to ride out the rest of the weekend and I’ll check the damages on Monday. I will get right back on the bandwagon when my workouts resume.
