I just finished the 2nd day of week 2 of the Couch to 5K program. I really really really didn’t want to wake up this morning. We had to sleep in the living room because we had our carpets cleaned upstairs and everything is out of our bedroom and the floors were still damp. Sooo, needless to say I didn’t sleep very well. BUT, an empty bedroom means that we are finally going to put our touch on it and design it the way we want…or I should say the way I want 🙂 We’ve been here a little over a year and haven’t done anything to that room.
Anyways.
I’ve been feeling REALLY hungry on the rest days of this workout. I mean HUNGRY. They aren’t food cravings. This is legit hunger. I never get hungry an hour after eating Subway. BUT, last night I was dying.
I promised to get my eating and tracking in shape this week. I need a slap in the face for real!
SO, just like I keep HootSuite open all day for managing social media (for me and my clients), I will keep my Weight Watchers tracker open. Also, I think going into the forums each day will also help.
See, with the workouts I have an accountability partner so I won’t miss a day. I don’t like letting people down.
BUT, with the food I don’t have anyone that I’m accountable to or anyone that wants to join me in Weight Watchers. Wahhhh lol
So, I suppose I need to really get on track and plan my meals, track them, and just eat the “right” things. It sounds so easy when I write it….but, when I apply it? Yea, that’s a different story.
Oh and dinner is already in the crock pot. Sometimes I amaze myself lol

You may need to eat more. (I know crazy cause that defeats the purpose right?!) But if you’re hungry, its your body’s way of telling you that it needs more fuel! With you working out, its eating up those calories (thank god!) and leaving you starving. Your body needs those extra calories to make the most of your workout. If you don’t want to eat too much more, try really nutrient dense foods packed with protein and fiber to help keep you full longer!
