I spoke too soon - was up a lb. this morning! :( But I did overdo the eating a bit yesterday. Hopefully today's run helped a bit, but I ate enough to make up for the calories. Kicking myself b/c I ate a bag (candy-bar size) of M-n-Ms, even. I never eat stuff like that, but they were a gift left from our apartment maintenance guys (they leave them when they come in to replace filters), and I was starving this afternoon after my run.Quote:

I decided to add a little more whole wheat carbs back in, in the AM, as I am still hungry, even with all the protein I eat. I'm having a lot of allergy issues, and craving comfort food.

I am on a layover in Houston and will be in Reno until late Thursday night. I hope to not do TOO much damage with hotel/convention food and will take advantage of the fitness center. Hopefully the act of reporting it here will help me to not give in too much...
