thanks guys!
I am so glad I am tracking my calories. the daily plate says 1949 and I think I am hungry. I am NOT hungry. without tracking, I would totally be tempted to have another snack to "fuel the 7 miler" I am doing in the morning. bullshit. I have had plenty of calories today. I will not become the best runner I can be with 26.1% body fat.
and in the morning, I have a yummy 110 calorie fruitein shake that I will have prior to my run, and another yummy post run shake that is 230 calories. I am giving my body all of the nutrients it needs to run well and still have a 500 calorie deficit for some nice slow steady fat loss.
my intuitive eating did well by me for the better part of 2008. and my modified protein sparing fast blasted some fat off in a hurry. and luckily, I have maintained the fat I lost during such a drastic move. now back to some nice, happy, slow, steady fat loss to finish up at around 23-24% going into marathon season. life is good!
