Ok - so today was a disaster nutritionally speaking. I've been mulling over why it was though, because I wasn't necessarily all that hungry. I think I ate it all because I felt so devoid of energy, like I really needed to get some gas in the tank, and I needed it now!

It has been really good weather here for the last few weeks - I've also been working hard through it - and seem to be getting less and less sleep. So along with reduced calories the recovery side of things has been steadily worsening. Looks like I've come up against my old nemesis Overtraining.

My shoulder has been causing me to wake up through the night and is certainly getting no better. This seems like a good time to take a break from training for a week or so. I shall stick with the clean(ish) eating and then add some KB stuff back in slowly if I'm sleeping better and feeling a bit more with it. I should probably not expect to lose much weight during this period either.

It may be a good time to reread Relax into Stretch.
