High calorie days
I like having a few high calorie days. I can get away with it at this point and maybe when I get closer to my goal I won’t be able to. I do think I need to rethink how I handle them though. I tend to eat like a bird all day long and than gorge myself on dinner. That used to not be a problem, but nowadays it’s just too darn uncomfortable. Between the lesser calorie intake most other days, my ulcer and the shock to my system the somewhat unhealthy meals I choose on my high cal days…my body just rebels.
You’d think I remember this on my high calorie days. I don’t ENJOY feeling like this. It hurts and it’s just uncomfortable. The food wasn’t worth it either. And honestly, since I ate like a bird all day…I really didn’t end up going that high above my calories. Which means that the calories I did use today were mainly wasted on something somewhat unhealthy that caused me pain later.
I need to remember and learn this lesson. I mean eventually it has to click right? The 4am wake up call of my ulcer where I think I am going to go to the ER if it doesnt’ go away…that’s not enough?
I do good most of the time. Making good choices, using my calories wisely, but than I splurge and it just hurts. So I’m posting about it so maybe writing it down will help me learn from it.
