Bit of a strange day. I had my interview to be an Olympic Volunteer in the late morning, so I had to get up and get out of the house at a decent time and make my way all the way out to the Excel in the rain. The interview went well, but the whole process took much longer than I thought it would. I only got back to Waterloo station about 1:15pm, at which point I decided it had been too long since I’d had food, so got some quick sushi. By the time I got home I was really tired and sore from my workouts over the past few days. So instead of a hill run I had a nap.
This would have been fine but then my husband and I ended up going on a chocolate binge that evening. We decided to stay in and watch a movie, so my husband went out to pick up a couple of things and came back with giant Easter Eggs and bars of chocolate for both of us. Now I did say I was craving chocolate, but I thought he’d come back with a single normal sized bar. Apparently I need to be more clear about what I expect! I know better than to keep large amounts of sweets in the house, but I apparently forgot to tell him. And yes, I know that I don’t have to eat it just because it’s there, but it’s really hard to resist the siren call of the sweets when I’m ensconced on the sofa watching a movie with my husband, especially when we’ve both been feeling a little blah all day. It does seem to be the less exercise I do the more likely I am to overeat.
So no surprise I had way too many calories, most of them from fat, and not enough from protein. Not a lot more to say, except there is still a lot of chocolate in the house to tempt me over the next few days!
