Tsk tsk tsk.
I have been absolutely ravenous for the past couple of days! I don't know exactly what it is. I'll eat my normal sized portions, be ok for a little while, but shortly after feel STARVING! My 24 little daily points have not been stretching like I know they can. I have not drastically changed what I've been eating, I have not increased my workouts...the only thing I can think of is that I'm due to get my period in 2 days.
Are these pre-menstrual cravings and hunger pangs all a myth or is there actually scientific evidence that we burn more calories or something? I don't experience this insatiable hunger every month but yesterday I just caved in!
I had a stupid day. It was a day that I was sort of looking forward to that ended up not so fun, I was worn down from battling my hunger from the day before, I was just HUNGRY. I came home sort of down in the dumps and I just didn't want to feel hungry anymore so I ate until it was gone.
I'm a little pissed at myself but not really. I didn't binge on unhealthy foods, I was craving protein and substance. The part I'm a little pissed about is that I think some of it was emotional eating and that I could have had less.
But now's the important part: the morning after. Time to pick myself up and carry on as usual, leaving this dark night behind.
