I used to be so anxious to take a day off from exercise that I’d force myself to work out even when I was absolutely exhausted, sore AF, overwhelmed and even in pain.

I tracked every single step walked, calorie burned, and active minutes on my Fitbit with obsessive precision. Did I run in place in my basement on the days that I hadn...

I normally have a pretty consistent eating pattern and am very much in tune with how much food my body needs to feel good, satisfied and energized. If my hunger gets throw off, I typically know why. Perhaps my meal was smaller than usual, or lacking carbs, and needed more protein. However, on this particular day, I couldn't understand why, no matter how much I ate, I still felt hungry. Real, physical hung...
