How many times have you finished a workout to realize you are SO “HANGRY” (hungry + angry = hangry)?
You don’t have enough time, so you grab a banana or granola bar and run out the door to work. Come to find out you’re hungry again an hour later with only your lunch and YOU JUST WANT TO EAT IT because you’re so hungry right now, but know you shouldn’t because you’ll have nothing for lunch later. So you wait for lunch to come and stay hungry. Sigh.
