3 miles of running in this morning. Today was an easy day to fit it in as I don't have to be at work till 11AM. Tomorrow, when I have to get up early will be the acid test of how determined I am.
The 3 miles were a struggle. I weigh at least 15 pounds more than I did when I was running in undergrad, and on the trails the extra weight is a strain.
But if studies have shown anything, it's that diets don't work. I could eat 1200-1500 cals a day for a while, and I'd lose the weight fast. Chances are good, though, that I would yo-yo back to where I started. So, instead, I'm going to eat the same number of calories per day that it took to maintain my weight back when I was running regularly. Hopefully, my weight will then very gradually ease back where it was. We'll see:)
