Laid Up? Take Advantage and Eat Less
I was inspired to write this post because I am, at the moment and for the past week, laid up. What I mean by laid up is I can’t work out and I can’t be on my feet for very long at one time, let alone work out. So, as a consequence, I’ve had to be sitting down a lot of the time (which I can’t stand, I’m used to working out) and I cannot stand for long periods of time, nor walk around for long periods of time. Which puts a damper on two things - working out and holiday shopping!
So, I really didn’t want to gain exponential amounts of weight because my physical activity is so limited for the next couple of weeks, and knew that although I might want to snack out of boredom, I would have to really watch my appetite.
I’m going to try chewing the hoodia gum for a while so that my appetite is suppressed, although with the reduced activity my appetite is not out of control, I’d like to make sure my caloric intake is lower than usual so I can take advantage of this time I cannot move too much and maybe shrink my stomach a bit.
Kill two birds with one stone, eh? Anyways, that is the plan and after a week of being laid up it seems I havent’ gained much weight, I’ve just gotten more flabby because I can’t keep up on my muscle tone and strength training.
