Well, although I did do a lot of things right yesterday, it's obvious that I did some things wrong. The biggest of those mistakes being a very delicious, although not very healthy, lunch of nacho pie. :~\ I only ate one slice with a salad for lunch, which probably wouldn't have been so bad, but then the afternoon hunger set in and I had another piece. Big mistake. The second mistake was putting off my exercise until too late, and then didn't get it in because I was too tired, my knee was hurting and the baby was asleep in my room where the treadmill is. As long as I don't make these bad days a regular occurance, I should be ok. It's when every day turns into a bad day that I will get into trouble. I just can't get discouraged and head back into a downward spiral.
So, this morning, I got straight up and got on the treadmill and did my stretching. DONE! It's a good feeling to have it out of the way. My knee is hurting pretty bad, but a little TLC today and hopefully it will be better by tomorrow. I got this article in my e-mail and thought I'd share it. The most helpful info for me was that, while vigorous exercise suppresses the appetite, moderate exercise stimulates it! I always wondered why I was more hungry on the days I exercised. That explains it! I kicked up the speed on my treadmill a bit this morning as a result. Here is the link~ http://www.oprah.com/health/Weight-Loss-Help-from-Bob-Greene
You can do it Susan! Even the little changes will make a big difference in your life! Hope your knee is feeling better today!
