Not eating enough- this is what happens.

Options
I've had a crazy week and every single day I've been significantly below my calorie goal. I do Bar Method every day and up until about Tuesday I had been getting stronger every class. Today I could not finish the regular 20 push ups like I usually do every day- I had to drop to my knees and barely finished. The rest of class was brutal and I really thought I might pass out at the end part. I have NEVER experienced this before and I know for sure that it's because I was, get this---- 1200 under TDEE yesterday. Don't get me wrong- I ate 1900 cals yesterday but according to my Fitbit, I burned about 3100.

This is why you don't undereat. Your body gets weak. You don't improve. You feel crappy. It's not fun!!

Lesson learned!!

    Water used to be an issue for me too- not anymore! I learned that the hard way too.
