I was having a very bad PMS day yesterday. Woke up feeling groggy and grumpy, even though I’d had a good sleep, so the morning was spent just laying around. I was supposed to go for a workout in the afternoon, but just couldn’t face the gym. So after lunch my husband and I walked into the town centre, did a bit of clothes shopping for me (where I found nothing I wanted to buy) then decided on the spur of the moment to go to the movies. We ended up seeing the 3:00pm showing of the new Sherlock Holmes movie which, while an entirely average movie, did take me out of myself for a couple of hours. Didn’t much feel like going home afterwards, so had a look in a couple more shops then noticed as we were passing the local theatre that the final showing of the family play The Snow Queen was playing in hour – so on a whim got tickets for that too! It is definitely the first time I’ve ever attended two shows of any kind in one day.
The problem with all of it was the timing of my eating. Had a late breakfast so ate quite a late, light lunch, then had to have supper at 6:00pm in order to be in time for the show. I was also prone to comfort eating sweets and alcohol, so ended up having an ice cream at the movies, a cocktail with dinner, some chocolates and a coke during first act of the show, and a glass of Prosecco at intermission. All told, I had over 1100 calories from treats and alcohol yesterday, 45% of yesterday’s calories. Proof of what happens when I don’t get enough to eat or enough of any one nutrient at my main meals!
I had a really good time yesterday, so it was worth it, but its back on track today!
