Mama said there’d be days like this….
I woke up this morning after a FANTASTIC run yesterday, and my knee (the right one) was KILLING me!! I was SO upset. It was 5:00 in the morning, and I had planned on going down to the gym for a quick run…like any normal person, I reset my alarm for 6:00 and went back to sleep. Maybe I figured that if I slept for another hour the pain would subside. No such luck. So, lacking a workout, I entered by day slightly bummed out. This turned into a day of binging on sugar-free sweets, mac and cheese (I’m a bit of an addict), and now I feel AWFUL. I used to binge when I was depressed, and I think that not being able to exercise was a pretty big deal for me. I know that one day is not going to hurt me, and I realize that the decision that I made today (to not stick to my planned meals) is something that I can correct by making good decisions from this point forward. I will definitely be exercising tomorrow, but I’ll have to wait and see how my knee feels to figure out which workout I can manage. I have a tendency to pick the HARDEST, most challenging workouts. I am usually sore for days, but I keep doing it…I’m an addict! LOL
Here’s hoping the Icy/Hot patch works wonders tonight!!
