Day 26

You've woken up covered in crumbs and cloaked in regret.

Now what???

What is your day after plan???

Eat vegetables and do cardio.

That's it.

Now let me tell you why.

When you overeat, you are essentially treating your body like an overworked, underpaid intern whom you slog all of your undesirable drudgery onto.

"Ummm, Sweetie, will you be a doll and do something with this?"

Your body agrees because it wants to please you, but it has no earthly clue what do with what you just handed it.  It doesn't recognize it and it doesn't know where it goes and the more of these indecipherable goopy doodads you pile into your body the more overwhelmed it gets and the more it begins to panic and the more it just tries to stash these goopy doodads anywhere it can fit them.

Namely on your butt.

So stop. 

Give it a rest.  

You had your fun and now it is your turn to pick up some of the slack.

You are going to want to make your body's digestion workload as light as possible to make up for overworking it the night before.

Eat vegetables.

And only vegetables.

All day.

Or for as long as you can stand it.

(If you get famished eat some brown rice or some beans.)

Your inner intern will be happy to see them.

Vegetables are the cleaning crew.  Then get in there and clear the gunk out.  

They, quite literally, get the goopy doodads out of your butt.

If you can juice your vegetables or eat a vegetable based soup, all the better.

And then get that butt moving.

Cardio detoxifies.

Cardio inspires.

Cardio can bring a house lump back from the brink.

Get moving.

Get sweating.

Put as much effort into the cardio as you put into the four slices of pizza.

But mostly, don't make yourself feel bad.

Just remember that your body works on the principle that what goes in must come out.

Too much in...you need to give it time to get it out.

It is important to be kind to your inner intern.

Give her proper rest and adequate breaks.

Because, as any good business person will tell you, you abuse an intern...

and that b*tch WILL get you back.
