Hey lovelies!
I had kind of an off day today because I was stressed out last night after my appointment with the dietician, so I didn’t feel like eating. Consequently, I was really hungry alllll day today. Seriously, my appetite was insatiable. And the dietician asked me to keep a food diary for a week with measured amounts. It kinda stressed me out to have to measure things like peanut butter before eating it. I don’t know. Hopefully I’ll get used to it. Anyway, it’s only a week.
I went to talk to the dietician though because my running has been so off lately. I just haven’t had any energy. I ran this morning, but I was waaay too hungry. I should have eaten before, but I learned my lesson. I wanted to run again after work since my morning runs are never very far (3 miles), and seriously, I crave it after sitting all day. I didn’t look at my watch and just turned around when I felt like it, and I got in such a good run!
L.O.V.E. this app!
I am so back on the breakfast for dinner thing with Irish oats for dinner. OMG heaven with homemade granola, frozen raspberries, a square of Endangered Species espresso dark chocolate, cashew butter, coconut butter, and sunflower seed butter. And I didn’t measure these out because I really didn’t want to.
Have any of you had this problem? Any suggestions? I think I’m going to get blood work done to see if I’m anemic or anything. For now, the dietician told me to start by getting more carbs in during the day.
Anyway, I hope you all have a great night!
xoxo.
I hope that the dietitian’s recommendations work out for the best!! Eat up today–you need to fuel yourself well for all that running
Yay for having breakfast for dinner! I LOVE it
Lately I’ve been eating breakfast 3 times a day and it’s been fabulous.
As for the running thing, when I find myself starting to get a bit laggy, I usually find it’s because I’m not eating enough. I think we tend to underestimate how much extra food our bodies need when we exercise, even if we think we’re not doing that much. Try eating more, and especially more carbs, and see how you feel.
YAY for not measring!… it could be iron ? or B12? i know those two thangs can really effect energy levels.. on top of that just make sure ur eating enuf cals for u and ur exercise and eating enuf carbs!
