Long Bones

I had a bingy day yesterday. Most of the time I’m the Mary Poppins of calorie counting – practically perfect in every way. For weeks I’ll go without busting through my allotted calories per day. And then I’ll have a day like yesterday.

To be fair, I think I may have been eating too little since I started exercising more frequently. Unfortunately the exercise tracker at www.livestrong.com says you burn way way way more calories than you actually do with exercise so I’ve been estimating. And I’ve been really tired lately (clue 1). And I’ve had these weird cravings which I don’t normally get (clue 2). And then yesterday I had a lot of chips and nacho cheese dip. As Nelly, Aulika or Jess could tell you – I hate fake cheese. Absolutely abhor velveeta, american slices or cheese whiz. Anything that has the phrase “Pasturized Processed Food Product.”

And yet I noshed on the bright orange monstrosity as if I was about to go into hibernation.

I believe the moral of the story is for me: eat more good stuff and you’ll eat less bad stuff. Pretty simple. I hope.
