Odd Things, but not sure of the lesson

The other day, I think I told you, I had a day in which my stomach was like an endless pit.

I’m not one to weigh myself every day because I find it’s counterproductive at times.  I mean, weight changes everyday a million times a day; to be obsessed at the scale just isn’t good.

However, since I completely gorged myself the other day, I thought it might be good to see what kind of damage I did.  That night?  Bad damage!  The next morning?  I was LESS than I had been on weigh-in day.

I was completely flummoxed!  I mean, how is that possible?  I figured on totally beating myself up through a long workout to make a balance and it turned out I only needed a normal workout.  That’s good to know, right?

I learned from that to really say, “well, my body knows what it needs and I should listen to it.”

However, that’s not the odd thing.  The odd thing is the next morning, after a great day food and activity wise, I was up WAY ABOVE my weigh in from Monday.  huh?

I know I shouldn’t obsess over it; I know I need to let it go because all I can do is eat right and exercise.  But I’m just not getting it!  Seriously?  After a great healthy day I am up and after a horrible day I am down?

Does that make any sense?  Anyone else ever have this experience?
