OMG! It's like I want to eat all day. What gives? I can't work out at night or I just won't get it done after a long day. But when I work out first thing in the morning I'm ravenous all day!

    Because your body needs the fuel. Are you eating back your exercise calories?

    When I work out at night, I'm ravenous all day the next day.

    If it makes you feel any better. :wink:

    Same here. I have to eat back some of those calories or I will be starving and miserable.

    Why don't you eat back the calories? If you're working out, your body needs more fuel than if you're not working out.

    I'll try it and see what happens. I think my body is just in shock that I'm making it work right now ;)
