Lunch

Sooo...who knew that morning exercise would make me feel like a starving fat woman right before thanksgiving dinner.  I mean I was starved. 

Today I brought a small compact lunch for myself.  A few slices of deli style turkey, sweet potatoes and 100 calorie pack cheese.  Good and straight to the point right.  Well lunch rolls around and I realize I'm starved...but I'm also sleepy.  So I opt to spend my 30 minutes in the car taking a nap (yes...it is 102 degree's...but I love to nap).  However, when I got to the car I realized I was really hungry.  I didn't want to clear the metal detector and walk all the way back to my office so I opted for the little Mexican spot up the street.

So I go in and request a 1/2 order of shrimp nachos.  The nachos come with re fried beans, grilled shrimp and cheese.  On the side you have the lettuce, sour cream and guacamole.  Needless to say those nachos didn't stand a chance.  I devoured them.  They were so yummy.  OMG.  I mean I have had this meal before and never were they this good.

I honestly wanted to lick my plate.  However, I thought that would have a little much even for me. 

I'm usually only able to eat 3 of these nachos.  Today I ate all 7.  Yup...with sides. 

This means I might need to add a slight jog to my walk tonight.  The pro about this meal was the good protein.  LOL

Do you ever get hungry after a workout?

Exercise makes me incredibly hungry... always. I don't do it late at night for that reason.

I usually eat my breakfast before my workout, (workout from 7:15 - 8am then shower and up to work desk by 8:30) By 9:15 - 9:30 I'm ready for my mid morning snack of yogurt w/ground flax. : )

exercise makes me hungry too... where are you on your fill? If you are able to eat more than usual and you are having hunger feelings- perhaps you need to get a little fill?

I am hungry ALL day when I work out in the morning. I hate morning workouts. I don't have to be at work until 11:00 and I still hate working out in the morning. I tried - I really did - but I am not a morning worker-outer.
