Considering that I ate more than I should yesterday, it's not bad! :)

I don't feel as tired as in the previous days so I'm guessing exercising will be easier but you never know since exercising daily may cause muscle fatigue if you overdo it. It's also important that, when you feel tired, you don't force yourself to a great intensity of exercise since this will make it even harder for you to exercise next time. That's why I always try to keep exercise manageable effort-wise (or suffering-wise lol). I try to keep it light. Unless I'm weight training but, in this case, we're talking about short bursts of effort which, for me at least, are easier to do with greater intensity, psychologically speaking. Exercise cannot be equivalent to great suffering to you, or you risk developing an aversion to it, unless you are in some kind of activity which has trainer, and even so, you have to be highly motivated if the level of effort is very high. Even when the objective is to improve physically, things should be done gradually, at least that's how I see exercising as a sustainable long term routine.

edit: I wasn't as energetic as I though I was today but that's normal when you exercise every day.

edit: I wasn't even noticing but my somewhat crippling back pain is practically gone. I haven't swam lately but it's gone. this is really great as I would wake up and need to do some stretching and warm up until the pain was manageable and only felt by doing some specific movements. This is really great! I remember that I got this pain while I was weight training so I have to be real careful with it when I start doing it again. I have to really be progressive and even perhaps avoid some exercises altogether. Either that or just sticking to calisthenics and swimming for my upper body.

Happy New Year everyone! :)

edit: wow, today was really really hard psychologically speaking. Holding back on eating sweets is soooo hard now. I will find myself literally salivating at times. I will think about sweets all the time and I have a headache now (that's probably not related though lol but I hope it's not withdrawal or something :) It definitely gets more manageable when I'm full though. That's definitely true! Finishing the day with a mug of milk and very proud of myself for being able to resist sweets for another day. I just hope the cravings will subside in a week, at most. Or at least diminish considerably lol... That would be good already.
