I should probably work out now...

Well I just ate an ENTIRE McCain Ultra Thin crust pizza and only have 150 cals left for my day AND didn't work out today. So I'm presently wrestling with the idea of squeezing a workout in. I am a little concerned about puking in my mouth and my motivation to do this is waning but burning off a couple hundred calories would probably alleviate the guilt (and help with digestion). MOTIVATE ME PEOPLE!

    I don't know what time zone you are in but I can't sleep after an intense work out. How about go for a walk and work extra hard tomorrow?

    If you still have cals left and it's the end of the day, you really don't NEED to work out. But if you feel awful and going for a short stroll will make you able to sleep, then go for it. Don't flog yourself at the gym because you've given in to a craving, or resorted to a quick meal. You'll burn out very quickly and lose motivation completely.

    I would go for a walk.

    Yeah, I'd have to agree, walking is probably less likely to induce puking.

    i had a huge dinner tonight hadn't fit in a workout yet- i just did dance aerobics for an hour and i feel SO much better about myself- so just my suggestion- get those endorphins and squeeze in a little workout :)

    When I eat like that I get on my treadmill for one hour. I sleep fine after a hard workout.

    I've worked out late before when I ate too many calories for the day and had no problems either. I guess it depends on if working out energizes you too much or not.

    if you have cable, you might check your on demand to see if you have access to fitTV or exercise TV. I get a lot of my indoor work outs from the on Demand. or heck, just walk around your house, start some laundry and clean the floors. You'd be amazed how many calories you can burn just by doing a moderate effort into house work. Just a suggestion. I just had a piece of chicago style pizza myself, so I have to find something to do. Think I'm gonna go Wii :)
